Did you get your first choice?

Hmm..yes and no I suppose. Before rush began I was set on Pi Phi. During rush I really liked another sorority, but in the end I did become a Pi Phi. Admittedly, I was disappointed when my at the time first choice released me, but at Bid Day I saw that I was home.

The house I had thought I wanted to join pre-rush and into several parties dropped me. But, I ended up getting the house I wanted after prefs.

My situation was sorta like erniegurl's and hopefulgreek's, I did not rush as a freshman and I had my heart set on Kappa Alpha Theta prior to and during rush -- my best best best friend in the world was a Theta and I just loved that house...but sadly they dropped me right before Pref...I was pretty upset...but I tried not to let it crush me -- my 2nd choice all thru rush was Gamma Phi Beta...after Theta dropped me, Gamma Phi became my 1st choice -- you see, I finally was able to realize after Theta dropped me that I had a ton of friends in Gamma Phi who all were proud of me -- even being the ROTC cadet and band geek that I was!! Whereas at Theta I just basically had that one best friend and some acquaintances...Gamma Phi Beta wanted me all along and they were my first choice after Pref and to this day I am 100% certain I am where I belong!!!

Ironically, my real little sister is a Theta! Go figure!
