nolegirl88's FSU recruitment thread!

[nolegirl88]

Well, I was debating on whether or not I was going to start a rush thread, but I decided I will!! I've gotten addicted to reading all the others, so I figured you all could use another thread to help your addictions as well . Recruitment orientation is sunday and everything starts monday! Yikes! I'm really nervous, but I feel pretty comfortable. I have everything I'm going to wear all planned out, some interesting information to say about myself, and practiced SMILING and introducing myself (I am sometimes a bit quiet in new situations). I have recs to around half the sororities, but am not a legacy..I'm not too worried though. Does anyone know how important recs are for FSU? I was thinking they mattered quite a bit, but on the other hand, it's surely not auburn or uga. Anyways, I looked up the weather in Tallahassee (http://www.weather.com/outlook/homea...Link_schoolday) and it doesn't look that great..but not horrible either. Gotta go find my umbrella! I've checked and rechecked my facebook and myspace, so everything is good on there! I don't think there's really anything left for me to do for rush until it starts except to wait..which is going to seem like so long! Even though it's just 3 days. I'm definitely excited!

Recs are somewhat important but not crucial. First cuts are almost always GPA related, then recs later in the week. I wouldn't bring up recs to anyone - if they want you bad enough, they'll get a rec for you.

Weather here is very hot and very humid. I would get a small umbrella to carry with your for the late afternoon parties. There are tents set up outside each house for shade/waiting, but there is a lot of walking between houses and the umbrella is good not only for rain, but to keep yourself from getting sunburned. Drink plenty of water and make sure your shoes are comfy and don't rub blisters if your feet are damp.

Enjoy Recruitment - it's a lot of fun and you'll meet a lot of great people.

thanks! I've been SO BUSY moving in yesterday and today, I am TIRED! We have recruitment orientation tonight, and everything starts tomorrow! We drove around and looked at all the sorority houses..and WOW they are all beautiful! Weather IS really hot here, but so far it hasn't rained (knock on wood) so I'm hoping it stays this way during the week. But one can only hope
