NervousNellie, I think the best thing you can ask her is "Would you rather accept a bid to your 2nd option or not in a sorority at all?" because that might be her choices....

She said none at all. I need to respect her wishes. It is her life, not mine! She feels quite secure with her first house, but I know that NOTHING can be counted on. I think she is aware of this as well. I do respect the fact that she does not want to join a house just to be Greek, and is willing to wait for next year if it doesn't happen. I gave her a nest, she has her own wings and choices. I just hope it all works out.

You sound like a great mom. I just hope your daughter educated herself enough to know that more than likely, this is her only chance. Like a few posters above me, Bama is pretty much one and done. Some Sophomores are successful, but those are not "re-rushing" Sophomores, those are girls that did not rush as freshman for whatever reason.

Funny. Not everyone who comes on here finds us too friendly  Of course, they generally are asking for us to blow sunshine up their skirts and homey don't play that.

nervousnellie,
When your daughter is welcomed with open arms by her new sisters and sees how thrilled they are to have her I hope she will be looking forward to wonderful times ahead.
Bid Day is an exciting time. Best wishes as she begins her college journey at Alabama.
