ADVICE FORIGN STUDENT

[danar1793]

It’s pretty easy for me to have a conversation with strangers at a party or something. Im very active, i left weights, play soccer all the time with people at the rec, and take judo classes.
And
Loll I no my spelling pretty much sucks I did go threw ESL but finished before middle school. I try to stay away from English classes and take everything else. My gap for last semester was a 2.8 but i'm defiantly planning on bringing it up to 3.2 by the end of these year.

Thanks for your advice! I do now a couple guys who are currently fraternities at unl. They seem pretty chill and I will defiantly ask them questions next time I see them. And yes I moved to Nebraska when I was four so pretty my whole life has been spent here. I was planning on talking to some sorority chicks, about which fraternity I can represent the best, but didn’t because I thought I would be coming of as desperate. I will contact the unl greek life office to see whats going on and learn more about the Greek System. Would it be a problem for me to rush in the summer being that i will be a sophmore by then?

However My main concern really had to do with my race being a factor. If you guys have any more advice for me on anything that I should consider doing to help my chance I would really appreciate it.

It shouldn't matter.

Most chapters hold open rush events over the summer. These are mainly held on campus during the various freshmen summer orientations - simply to make it easy on the incoming freshmen (and often their parents) to attend.

However, prior to (and even during) the on campus orientations, most chapters will also hold off campus events outside of Lincoln. And some events on campus at their house. These rush events may be open or may be by invite. Most often there is some combination of the two.

Note: Some chapters begin Summer Rush events at the end of the spring semester (i.e. in May), so to receive full consideration, it is recommended that you sign up by May 1st.
