Hi ya'll! My first thread here! I am transferring from Blinn into A&M and will be going through recruitment in August! I have a couple of questions for those of you who are familiar with A&M recruitment!
First, I don't have any connections with actives in any of the houses. Will this hurt my chances as a sophomore? I have heard that as a non-freshman that it is easier to get a bid when you have friends in the houses! I am a legacy for one sorority, however I know that only takes you so far!
Also, my sister is in a sorority (at a different, private school and I know they work differently!) but she told me that sororities tend to have higher GPA cutoffs for sophomores. My GPA is good and I worked very hard my freshman year but it's not a 4.0. Should I be worried about this?
Last question I promise! I got accepted into A&M in the second week of June. I registered for recruitment that day and started rounding up letters of recommendation the day after. I read on another thread on here that it is late to still be getting letters! Is that another thing that could possibly hurt me? I have been going as fast I can getting everything together, but I'm afraid I'm late in the game! I didn't want to start asking alumna for letters before I had gotten admitted!
Sorry for the massive wall of text
Ya'll can probably tell I'm very nervous/excited for this! I have been wanting to join a sorority since I was little so I just want everything to go well!
