Will my age hurt me in recruitment?

[Titchou]

I skipped second grade and was barely 17 when I went thur rush (yes, it was rush back then). No one said a word...but parents had to sign everything then anyway. But we've had plenty of 17 year olds come thru where I've advised and it's not been a problem...just have to get the parents to sign off on things.

If you're used to being with older people now (as you are, since you've skipped a grade), then you shouldn't have a problem. I wouldn't recommend advertising your age, but I wouldn't lie about it, either. If asked, just say your age, mention that you've been ahead for years, and that you're more used to women their age than your own.

PM me if you have any special questions.

I learned something new today. My niece was sixteen when she matriculated at Tulane.

I would think that any parent would be very happy to have a young daughter in a sorority. Their daughter would have a lot of sisters to look out for her, along with a home away from home.

I started classes when I was sixteen, but I was only part time until I was 17 and didn't rush until later on....

I learn something new about you all the time, honey!

My mom turned 16 in the middle of August and started college just a week later. She ended up graduating from medical school at 23.
