I mean do girls actually drop out of rush and wait until rush is over to try to rush DZ?

For me - yes and no. I went through rush up until the pref parties - went to 3 of them and I more than likely would have gotten a bid from one of them, but I didn't sign my preference card. I knew the DZ colony was there - and obviously the National representitives knew I was there because they invited me to come see what they were all about.
Obviously, a lot of girls will not drop out of rush with their heart set on DZ - but many of them will keep the idea of something new, something they can help build into a strong and very respected chapter on the UF campus in the back of their mind.
Since the UF colony will be new, the national advisors will also be looking for leaders. I have heard it is hard to rush as a sophomore/junior... at UF - the DZ nationals will be looking for these women, and I am sure there are some of them - who maybe never rushed before, dropped out - and are top quality to provide leadership and experience to a new chapter.
When my chapter recolonized during the time i went through formal rush we too held our recruitment after formal recruitment and believe me, we did great and are very strong on campus for being so new - so don't worry about it
