I do not like to miss class at all, and I know I can get excused from recruitment... I'd be missing a day of open houses and a day of 2nd rounds...
I am really worried that is going to hurt my chances since I will not be there to make an impression (esp during second rounds) and was wondering, does the greeklife office let the sororities know that the girl is missing because of class?

I just feel like with my luck I'm going to miss out on the chapters i'd like to have a chance with because since it is such a big school with large greek life and the girls are rushing about 600-700 girls i think on average that i'll get lost in the crowd...plus I'm a sophomore and worried I may be pushing my luck even to start off with because I'm also in a service sorority chapter...

Anyways, just mostly wondering, do your schools let you know if a girl is missing because of a leqit reason like class and if so I know we cant say exactly why anyone gets cut, but do you still try to keep those girls in mind if they make a good impression in first rounds, etc?

This is something you'll need to ask your Rho Chi/Gamma Chi/whatever when you register.

Every school handles absences differently. At my school, Rho Chi's would let us know if a PNM was going to be absent for class. Whether we wanted to invite that PNM back was up to us. We weren't obligated to keep them or cut them.

Every sorority is different. We can't really say if a chapter is going to invite you back if you miss parties because every chapter makes decisions differently.
