Are some people just not meant to be in sororities?

Thanks for your wishes!! I'll keep everyone up to date with the process next week!

People might have said this already, but remember it only takes one. Do research on the chapters you have left and be kind and outgoing in the ones you return to. But come up with a plan if you do get released for getting involved in other activities.

Side note: Several of my sisters had only 3 left after the first round! And had one left after skits (like me). Well, they're my sisters now! So it can work out.

And I'll shamelessly plug my own... because I really think it might help you to read. http://www.greekchat.com/gcforums/sh...d.php?t=129122

Aww thank you for your uplifting stories! I'm glad you found your home...that must have been nerve-wracking just having 1 sorority for a few days. I hope I will find my home as well. Just a few more days...

Hoping the best for you... I too have often wondered how girls with good grades, good appearance slip through the cracks. Keep being yourself and give the 3 you have left your all. Let them know how happy you are to be there!

Thanks! My Pi Chis are completed baffled as well. :/ I can't really figure out the system until I'm on the other side...too bad it's difficult for me to get to that side lol.

I am going through rush right now, and so far, it has been great. There is a bit of understated competition between the houses at my university that you can really feel, but it does not phase me. I only wish that the process was the same for you.

But you're still in? When is your next round?

Yay! I wish you all the best!

I know you're maintaining silence until after recruitment, but I just wanted to tell you good luck and keep your chin up!

Hi Wishful,

I just wanted to let you know I have been in your EXACT same situation before. I was released my first time going through recruitment and I went through again and found my home. I was cut very heavily during my second, but two sororities wanted me back the whole entire time. Please read my story to help you stay positive and I have some advice on this thread as well: http://www.greekchat.com/gcforums/sh...d.php?t=122133

Oh my gosh. The same thing happened to me as you can see!! I wish I read your story earlier in the week because it would have given me a lot of hope.

And to everyone out there....this story has a happy ending!! I'm going to post my recruitment story soon!
