UCF Recommendations-Important?

[BellaBerlee]

Hey,
I tried to PM you but it says I can't....Here's what I said

Recs are always important at UCF - however not mandatory. I believe having them makes you stand out in a crowd of 1,000 girls. Especially since the chapters will have someone special to look out for.

As a sophomore you want to go in with your best foot forward - and that is having a rec. Some groups may even cut you as a sophomore - hard fact but true.

I would be more than willing to write a rec for you - I'd like to either meet you (on campus or what not, I still live nearby) or kind of chat back and forth to get to know you and get a better understanding of who you are as a person. Let me know what you think!

Good luck this Fall! I can't wait to hear about it!

I get the impression that recs at UCF are important to have. If you're a non-freshman, I'd suggest getting them for as many chapters as you can.

Ditto. To answer your questions via PM (I think you PM'd me... I got a bunch of PMs from UCF PNMs and accidentally deleted everything...)

UCF Panhellenic has a min. GPA required just to go through recruitment. Most of the actual chapters have a requirement above this GPA. If you have less than a 3.0, expect early heavy cuts.

As fast as average chapter dues, I'm not sure b/c I graduated so long ago! However, at recruitment, each sorority will take time during their events to go through the cost of dues, what they cover, etc.

Best of luck!
