I rushed as a sophomore but withdrew on pref night after being dropped by every sorority except the ones I had been trying to drop all week. Before you judge me for being stuck up and not accepting the houses I was invited back to, you should know that out of the many chapters on my campus, there were 4 I walked into and knew they weren't my home and 3 of those are all I had left on pref night. I want to be in a sorority more than anything but didn't want to settle. My question for all of you is:
Now that I know which chapters I fell in love with, is spring recruitment my best option?
I already regret not joining one when I went through recruitment the first time but I didn't want to settle when I thought I had a chance of getting a bid next time for the house I walked into and knew I wanted to call my home.
Please leave any tips you have.

ETA: One of my biggest pet peeves: Saying you have to "settle" for something you know next to nothing about. I'm sure these are amazing chapters of wonderful women. What you've settled for is not being Greek. You could have at least gone to pref the first time around.
