COR is so nerve-wrecking! All the waiting and wondering "will I get a bid?" I went to 3 COR events for Sigma and I remember the ENTIRE weekend wondering "will they pick me?" Good luck!

Did they say how long you would have to wait to hear something?

lmao I love the dancing banana! That's totally cute

No, they did not tell us how long we'd have to wait to hear something. I asked my friend (who took me to the COR party) and she said that if we don't hear anything by Monday she'll ask about it. So we have really no idea what's going on...

I love this thread!!

I'm sending you all kinds of good thoughts and prayers and vibes!!!

ps... I think its totally a huge plus that you have a girl friend in the sorority. i think that helps especially with the fact that she's willing to check for you.

fingers and toes crossed.
may it end happy.

*sigh*...I haven't heard anything at all from banana, so at this point I'm pretty much assuming that I didn't get in. My friend only said she knows that four or five (out of about 9 of us at the COR event) got in, but she doesn't know who (since she's just pledged, she didn't vote on who got in or anything). I'll most likely find out tonight after their meeting, but I feel like I would have heard something by now.

EDIT
So I emailed one of the other girls that I went to the COR party with and she said that the girls that SHE talked to at banana told her that they don't actually have any open spots right now but they're going to have more COR events and they'll call us if they want us to come back.

So now I'm even more confused! Hopefully my friend will be able to clarify for me tonight what exactly is going on, because it seems like nobody really knows what banana is planning to do with us, if they're planning anything at all...

Oh my heart goes out to you!

When I rushed, I went through what was then called open rush. I received a bid from one house where I had friends, but that wasn't the house I really wanted. I waited all day and all evening of bid day to see if I got a bid from the house I really wanted. They never came. I was so disappointed and tried all day the next day to understand why I didn't get a bid when I had pretty much been assured at preference that I would be getting one.

As it turned out, since I lived off campus (at home) my bid did not get delivered to me on bid day, but they brought it to me the next day. The girls who were supposed to bring it to me got lost, etc. (I know. They should have called, but...)

Anyway, all that to say that things happen behind that scenes that you wouldn't expect. Hang in there and I hope it all works out for you to be a "banana"!

This is frustrating I know. I remember back in the day when I did COR the first time. I kept waiting, and waiting, and waiting for this one sorority to invite me to events. It def. doesn't help the nerves!

Keep your head up girl!!!

mmcat · #89 10-05-2005, 12:02 AM

how sad my friend.
just remember your importance and your value and do not allow this to bring you down.

Question.... Why are they having COR events if they don't have any open spots?
