A junior is definitely more difficult.
Start looking around now among your high school friends at UA - did any of them pledge a sorority? Try to connect with them when they come home. Same with friends at your junior college. Juniors who rush successfully often already know someone in the house.
Good luck, Bamagirl. It will probably be more difficult to go through rush as a junior, but you won't know what opportunities may exist unless you try.
Like others have said -- keep your options open, and work on rounding up those recs. And remember (as others here have also said) to treat every invite as an opportunity -- it only takes one.
For those of you attending the University of Alabama’s Panhellenic Preview Weekend next Saturday I wanted to pass onto you that just as the brochure states…dress is casual. In fact, the sororities are all wearing jeans. So ladies if you want to wear jeans and a really cute top go right ahead. I will tell you that I think that you will also see girls in skirts and tops and maybe even a few dresses.
Okay so if you are heading to Preview this next weekend what kinds of questions can you ask the sorority members you are talking with? Here’s a few questions as well as some good points to make.
