we had some cheerleaders, dancers and majorettes in my chapter, but they participated in those activities after their freshman year.
at my daughters college, they have had cheerleaders and dancers who theypledged that were involved in those activities while they were rushing. i guess they managed to make the recruitment parties, and as far as i know they had no problems with chapter and new member meetings. i do know that the fall sport(soccer, cross country) coaches at her school decided that their athletes could not rush-my daughter knew several girls who were disappointed but complied with their coach's wishes. its a shame, because they would have made great members.
your best bet would be to contact the greek life office at your future school and see if any concessions are made for the cheerleaders during recruitment. i know of several schools where they try to work with fall athletes and band members.
