 Yes, really. 
  
The registration cost increases as the rush dates approach, however.
  
Which SEC and Big 10 schools have a drop-dead cutoff date  well before rush begins?

 I always laugh in awe when I hear how much people pay to rush.  When I was an undergrad, it was $5 to rush.

Recommendations are strongly suggested, not required. The UofA Panhellenic site includes a lengthy page devoted to Letters of Recommendation: http://www.uapanhellenic.com/index.p...d=15&Itemid=32

Registering the day of convocation? Probably not.

This is double top-secret PNM registration information. We can’t tell you the reason we have late registration, but we are delighted that you asked, so we can tell you that we can’t tell you.

Good news!  Then it won’t be necessary to skip lattes.  
 
 
 
bml619, congrats on finding your new sisterhood!

 Nope, you're not the only one.  I'm clueless, and a little thrown at seeing an Opie in anything but  The Andy Griffith Show.
 
Congratulations, bml619!
