If you are thinking about Ole Miss, something to consider…there are more legacies going through recruitment for many sororities (maybe all of them) during Formal Recruitment than quota. That is not to say that the pledge classes will be comprised of legacies exclusively, but that is what young women are up against when they go through Recruitment at Ole Miss.

Oh trust and believe I know! For Kappa Delta I'm going to get letters of rec from my cousin and a different cousin's girlfriend (both were KD at their schools) even though that doesn't make me a legacy it's still good for them to see I have family in the organization. I also want to get some other letters of rec for other chapters I've been doing my research on (Phi Mu and DG) hopefully it will keep me in mind even if I'm not a legacy...I'll just have to stand out a lot and make sure I'm giving it my all haha!

Recruitment doesn't work this way. It's been said and explained why to you, nicely, and more times than 1.

You can't just get recs to any chapter and think that means they'll scoop you right up. It's Ole Miss, EVERYONE has recs. Recs don't make you stand out, they're all but required in an SEC recruitment and having them doesn't make you special or unique.

Though since you're so gung-ho on KD, you might have a chance if your rec comes from Leigh Anne Tuohy
