Based on things I've read during my time on this board, FSU is competitive. If you can secure recs for the other sororities, I think that could be a good thing.

fl girl, if you can make some more connections and secure some more recs. that would be helpful.

Well how do I get more recs, the only one I have is from my cousin.

What do you guys mean 'recommendations'? I too will want to rush at FSU next year as a junior. Do you mean recommendations from alumnae or recommendations from sisters that I'll meet during recruitment week?

Recommendations from alumnae. Check out the stickied threads at the top of the recruitment forum.

Just FYI, you are replying to a thread that is 7 years old.

You have a sister that I think you meant to say IS a member of Chi Omega, right? ASK HER!!! There is a whole lot to know about the recruitment process. Going into it as a junior, you are way behind the curve already. You need to really get your ducks in a row if you want to be successful.

No, you do not get recommendations from the girls that you meet during rush. You get them from sorority alumnae of all of the chapters on campus.

If you are already at FSU and you want to be in a sorority I would try to rush informal in the spring. Yes that means it will likely be at a less prestigious sorority, but based on your knowledge base and your class standing you wouldn't be getting into a highly competitive chapter anyway. The experience would still be valuable so give that lower than top tier chapter a shot.
