Oh i have a new question now. Lets say I rushed at SFSU and joined a fraternity i like, and lets say i transferred to SDSU the next semester. Can i automatically transfer to the same fraternity at SDSU if it has a chapter there?

Nevermind. I just checked names of every fraternity both schools have and i couldn't find any common names. Does that mean these two schools don't have any fraternities that are common?

If the same fraternity had a chapter, then almost certainly. There's probably a vote involved, but I doubt you'd get voted down. You'd still be an alumni of the first fraternity

If there aren't any common names then those schools don't have any fraternities in common.

Looking at the SFSU greek life page, almost all the fraternities are either MCGLOs, NPHC, or LGLOs. Those aren't the kind of fraternities that you seem to want to join, so I'd just say hold off until you get to SDSU. The only NIC I saw that SFSU had was Pi Kappa Phi, and according to the SDSU greek life site, there's no Pi Kap chapter there.

You are right. Asians, Latins and African Americans make half of school population at SFSU. I might still try to rush just to have some experience about rushing though.

Hey all… I’ll be a freshman at USC this fall (actually, in about a week!) and I’d like to join a fraternity.

Is anyone on this board familiar with the rush process at USC? Is rush as stressful and intense for USC guys as it apparently is for USC girls? Do most guys who want to pledge get a bid?

I guess I just really don’t know what to expect… any input or advice would be great.

Or if that's too vague...

I'd like to get an idea of each fraternity's reputation before rush, and I'm sure I'll be able to do that to an extent on campus, but since rush starts only a week after I arrive on campus... It'd be really helpful if someone on this board who knows about the fraternities at USC could help.... like, you know, which ones are known as the jock fraternities, which one the nerds, which one the hard partiers, etc...

Thanks so much!

I doubt very much you'll get any assistance with that from anyone here. Most people on GC do not like to further stereotypes that are associated with individual chapters or whole fraternities.

ahhhh, oh well…. There are just so many, and it seems like it will be so hard to get an impression of each during that very brief time period from the beginning of school until the end of rush (less than 2 weeks)….

well, if anyone is willing to share their impressions, but doesn’t want to publish it on the board, feel free to PM me…

maybe if you go to Recruitment Stories Forum and open a new thread about your rush you may be able to attract good advices in that thread. People like rush stories.

No he won't.

The Rush Stories forum is for rush stories, not to further stereotypes.

Maybe you should refrain from giving further Greek Life advice until you're...oh, GREEK.

No. I don't know of anyone else who would do that. Especially when it comes to NPC rush. And not when they themselves have had 354 failed attempts.
