The basic idea is this. If a girl is cut from a chapter during recruitment and she participates the next year that the chapter will cut her again. The thinking behind it is that she was cut for a reason the first time around. If the girl had fit chapter standards then she wouldn't have been cut in the first place and would have received a bid from someone. She obviously didn't receive a bid so the chapter cuts her again because the reason they cut her before still most likely still applies. This isn't done as much since UA instituted an upperclassmen quota system because the girls aren't counting against the freshman quota.

this doesn't apply to all the chapters at UA, i have plenty of friends who went through again as sophomores and received a bid to their first choice mainly because of grades and their friends they made within the chapter. grades and friends are the 2 best things you can have if you want to rush as a sophomore! i know plenty of girls who do and since you didn't rush the first time you have an even better chance. best of luck!!!!
