ZTA Colony?

Hi everyone! I'm new to GC, but I've been lurking for a couple of days now. I recently transferred to IUPUI from IU Bloomington (I'm a sophomore) and ZTA is starting a new chapter on our campus right now. I'm really interested in joining because I missed out on recruitment in Bloomington for scholarship reasons, but I think Greek life sounds like a lot of fun. Does anyone have any tips/advice for me about the recruitment process of starting a new colony? What kinds of things should I expect during and after recruitment? How is it different from an established sorority? I'm really excited, but I'm nervous, too. Any advice and/or information you guys can share would be super-helpful!

Thanks in advance!!
