Hi everyone!
I've been lurking around here for a couple weeks and I think I've decided I want to rush next year (I'll be a sophomore). My school has formal rush in the spring, and a few chapters have an informal rush in the fall if they are under a quota. So I have a couple questions about informal recruitment-
-How does informal typically work? From what I understand, you visit whichever houses are recruiting and then if they like you, they'll offer you a bid? Is this correct or do you still have cuts, preference parties, etc? I'm sure this is different for each campus, but I was just wondering what the general situation was.
-If you are accepted to a sorority, do you still go through a pledge process similar to the formal pledges? Ex. Getting a big, big/little week (or would you do this when the spring pledges do?), initiation, etc.
-Which girls are considered your "pledge class"? The small amount of girls that are accepted with you during fall during informal recruitment or the girls accepted through formal recruitment in the spring?
I think that's all..I'm really excited to rush! Thanks for all your help in advance.
