Recs for People without an Alum group or hometown panhellenic

[krystopholis]

I come from a town with 798 people, and the rest of my county is very rural/small town as well. I just looked at the directory of Alumnae Panhellenics and the closest one to me is an hour away. Should I try contacting that one? What should I do to get my letters of recommendation? I'm going to be rushing Texas A&M in the fall and I just read in another forum that they are very important to have there. I only know one person who could write me a letter! Any advice would be helpful!

have you asked former teachers(try all the way back to preschool if you have to), ladies at church, neighbors, friends in sororities, friends parents, your parents friends and coworkers, relatives? have you asked the one person that can write you a rec. if she could help you secure recs. to any of the other chapters at tamu?

do contact the alum. panhellenic nearest you-they will understand that being from a small town your resources are limited in regards to recommendations.

I second all of that.
