Rush at UofA

[clairedelune]

Hi everyone, thanks for the advice, I guess I'll have to work out my calf muscles before rush??

I have another question, the only orientation I can attend is on philanthropy day. What time during the day are the recruitment activities? I'm assuming it's an all-day thing, and if I have to I can skip orientation because I really only need to register for classes. Also, what do you do if you can't come for a day during rush?

Based on what I've read here on GC, I'd strongly suggest against missing a day for rush. Set aside August 10-17 just for rush if you have to. If you can't, I'd suggest calling the Greek Life office listed here: http://www.uapanhellenic.com/recruitment.php

Rushing there is competitive enough as it is and many consider it very serious business. Missing any event or any of the days could possibly hurt your chances.

Do not miss a day of recruitment! We knew a great PNM who had to miss the first 2 days because she'd been overseas as an exchange student. Normally, she would have been in great demand but only one group asked her to come to that third day..she didn't even get a chance at the rest. She pledged for about a week and dropped out, feeling like she never got a real shot at the sororities.
