rushing as a junior

[greekcheek]

first of all i'd like to apologize if this has been asked numerous times before...

I was thinking of (fingers crossed) transferring to UCLA as a junior next year. I've always wanted to be in a sorority...will I still have a good chance of getting a bid even if i'm a junior? I heard priority goes to freshmen or sophmores. am i at a disadvantage because im trying to rush as a junior?

There is a new system at UCLA tthat makes it better for juniors and seniors going through recruitment. It used to be that juniors were competing against freshman and sophomores for the spots available in the house. With this new system, it makes it less tense for the juniors.

WITH THAT BEING SAID, one of my good friends- cute and veryyyy sweet- is currentily going through recruitment as a junior. She has also experienced harsh cuts. Therefore, don't expect recruitment to go exactily the way you would like because of this new system. Go to EACH DAY with an open mind.

The way it works at the Chapter I advise at is we look at how many women we have in each class. If we have a lot of Juniors in the house we will limit and drop juniors because we would rather take more Freshman. This year we took less than 5 because we have a huge junior class still in the house. The better the Chapter retains members the less we will take. The ones we do take will have good grades and tons of leadership activities from COLLEGE not from high school. Hope this helps.
