I'm going to be straight up: for a Canadian school, sorority recruitment at UBC is definitely competitive.
They have a website here: http://www.ubcsororities.com/

If you are considering recruitment for Sept 2009, now is the time to clean up one's act and "tidy up" things like inappropiate photos on Facebook / MySpace etc. (thinking of the girl who was dropped from the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader Camp, due to photos that would potentially embarrass the DCC organization).

Now is the time to be mindful of your personal conduct. Women can, do, and will "talk" and you *never know* who has a sorority connection via their sister / cousin / next door neighbour / coworker, etc.

Some members also have little sisters who are still in HS... sorority members could ask these highschoolers what your reputation is. Be aware of this. It's best to mind your P's & Q's. Vancouver is smaller than you think.

One final point is one does not "join" a sorority, they are INVITED to join a sorority. (thinking back to girls who say, "I'm going to join XYZ"....., which comes across as presumptuous.)

My advice is direct, but I feel that it's better to be direct, than to misinform someone by blowing sunshine up their proverbial derriere.

That is all.

As is UW's recruitment.
