My name was spelled wrong on my Bid Card too! It was hard to be too upset about it on bid day though

Hey guys. I know I promised you my recruitment story once it ended. Well, it ended, and it didn't work out. I mean really didn't work out! And I don't mean I didn't get what I wanted. This was one of the hardest things I had to go through and I'm really upset about it. So that is why I can't post my story. Congrats to everyone else who had things work out for them.

I'm sorry to hear that.

I don't know if you'll ever read this, but I'd just like to say that I'm sorry.

And- not getting what you want doesn't mean that it's the end of the world. I didn't get my first choice- and now, I KNOW I wouldn't be the person I am today without Alpha Chi in my life.

Thank you.

I just came back to see what you would say. I wish it was just I didn't get what I wanted. I would of been happy no matter where I ended up. But I was cut completely. And I go to a school where pretty much everyone gets in so it made me feel even worse.

Interesting.

Was her OP a foreshadowing of things to come?

Coincidence?

Interesting.

I'm sorry, OP.

Fall down seven times, get up eight. - Japanese proverb

aephi alum, that is one of my favorite proverbs, and is hanging on the wall in my office.

to the OP: I am most sorry that things did not work out for you. I know you are hurting.

I know next to nothing about recruitment, and I'm definitely not in a sorority, but isn't there another chance next semester? How many stories are on here about girls who had to rush a second or even a third time to get a bid?

That REALLY depends on a lot of factors, like what school she's at, what year she is.

Hoping, I'm so sorry things didn't work out for you.

I am really sorry to hear that it didn't work out. It is a tough thing to have happen and I imagine you are having a hard time with the whole situation. When you are ready, feel free to come back.

Hey OP, I'm very sorry to hear what happened!! I would definitely get involved in some other organizations on campus. Being Greek isn't everything, there are many independent's who are still super involved on their campuses and having a ton of fun. If you decide that you really do still want to be Greek, try rush again in the fall, or see about trying to go to a COR/COB event. It sounds super corny, but whatever ends up happening is meant to be, and no matter what path you choose, college will be one of the BEST experiences of your life. Good luck!!
