Congrats to your daughter. My daughter was OOS with no Greek legacy or any friends either when she went through 3 years ago. So glad to hear it is working out for her so far. Please keep us updated and good luck!

That's great!!!!! Happy to hear she is going back to her top 2. I hope she has another great round today.

I would probably wait and you can tell us tomorrow where she pref'd and ended up at.

I know it's hard but houses haven't voted yet.

I'm dying to see pics of my daughter and her pledge class with their senior pics which they can't post until tomorrow. LOL.

Good luck and make sure to let us know tomorrow.

thank you! and, as soon as i posted the question about sharing her pref houses i knew that nerves had made me lose the rational part of my mind

good luck to all of the other uk moms/rec writers tonight! we are heading to lexington tomorrow for bid day. not sure if this is tradition at uk, just doing the alabama thing !

got the scoop on rec girl #2 Has TWO great options.

an interesting side note: rec girls #1 & 2 were legacies to the same house. both girls were cut from that house. (no connection between the girls -- from totally different parts of the state)

can't wait until tomorrow to hear how it goes!

[UKMOM14]

Good luck to all the PNM's today and their mama's!!!!

I can't believe this will be my DD last year at UK and as an active with Pi Beta Phi! The senior angel wing pictures choked me up this morning for sure.

Can't wait to hear where all the girls end up later this afternoon!

[ceciliaky]

Ok ... I have an AOPi, a Theta, and ... unknown. LOL

edited to add ... rec girl #3 is a new Kappa!

[NWGreek]

We have a family friend at U Kentucky and kept her favorites all the way through. Sounds like it went very well for her - she is a new Tri-Delt - very happy. I would have expected this young woman to do well, but you never know what will happen until the end.

Saw on Facebook that quota is 94 and that Pi Beta Phi made quota.

[UKMOM14]

Congrats to all the girls!!!! Today is such an exciting day for them!

GO BIG BLUE

[ladybug8484]

Here's the numbers I got:
Alpha Delta Pi 96
Alpha Gamma Delta 100
Alpha Omicron Pi 83
Alpha Phi 90
Chi Omega 94
Delta Delta Delta 90
Delta Gamma 91
Delta Zeta 93
Kappa Alpha Theta 90
Kappa Delta 94
Kappa Kappa Gamma 90
Phi Mu 91
Pi Beta Phi 94

Congrats to all the new members!

A quota of 94 seems odd if those numbers are accurate. It would mean that far fewer houses made quota than didn't. Is this normal at UK?

No. Most UK chapters make quota.

I wonder if my friend heard Pi Phi took 94 *and* made quota and simply thought quota was 94. My guess is that based on the numbers provided, quota was 90.

[IndianaSigKap]

I would guess that quota was 90. It seems like several of the chapters took 90 and last year it was 88, I think. So that would make sense.
