Recruitment registration

[momof4girls]

Thank you everyone for the information. I touched based with my friend (the mom) and explained to her why formal rush was a better route than informal rush. She said they would call the Greek Life office tomorrow and find out if she can late register. I also explained to her about reqs and if the Greek life office said ok, I would help them with all the information they would need to get reqs. I realize it's late and she may not be able to get a req for each sorority, but some are better than none in my opinion. We're in small town America and most people here have zero knowledge about the Greek system. My friend was very appreciative of the information I was able to give to her. I do hope the Greek life office gives her the green light. She is such a delightful young lady and any NPC would be lucky to have her as their member.

fingers crossed for your friends daughter. don't be discouraged about the lack of greek resources from living in a small town. i grew up in a small town myself, but with the help of family friends, managed to have recs. to almost all the houses at fsu and there were 18 at the time.

if you have kept in touch with any of your sorority sisters, they might have friends in other sororities. between your network and the girls family's network of acquaintances you just might luck out.

please be sure to let us know how everything works out.

The university said no late registrations. I'm so upset for her.

Everything happens for a reason. She might end up with the group she wants in spring, and be more acclimated to college as well.

I'd send it anyway. Couldn't hurt to try. BTW, did she talk to the Greek advisor? Or just somebody in the office?

I actually called first thing this morning and talked with someone in the office, not the Greek advisor. I was going to spend the day putting together a Greek 101 manual and everything she needed to get accomplished prior to the start of rush to help her out since neither her or her mother are familiar with the Greek system. This has bothered me all day. Perhaps if she wasn't such a delightful young lady, I would just set it aside and move on. I also find the fact that she knows little about each sorority to be refreshing. She could go into rush completely open minded and truely let her heart lead her in the right direction.

The University took the registration form link down, so going ahead and applying is not an option at this point. The only link they have open at this point is for COB.
