Hi everyone!
I just had my bid day and I’m so excited to share my recruitment story. There are a lot of ups and downs, but overall I think I ended up where I belong!
The story starts last year, my freshman year of college. I went to college on the opposite side of my state at a school where I knew absolutely no one. After having a couple friends suggest I join a sorority, I decided to go through recruitment! I was absolutely ecstatic, but there was just one problem… my high school GPA. It was barely above the minimum requirement to sign up, and way under most of the sorority’s minimum requirements. I still gave it a try, though, and during the first round I fell in love with Greek life! I loved talking to all of the sorority women and I could definitely see myself being one of them. My GPA didn’t get me very far, though, and I ended up with only one house left out of 12 the next round. I can’t say I didn’t expect it, but I was still really upset by it! With advice from my rho gamma, I decided to drop so I could work on my grades and try again next recruitment. At the end of the year, I was incredibly happy with my college GPA but not so happy with my university. I transferred to a school closer to home, fell in love with my new college, and eagerly signed up for recruitment!
Since my recruitment journey was definitely an emotional rollercoaster, I decided to use famous rollercoasters as a code! (Even though I’m terrified of them)
Here are the seven sororities at my school, in no order:
Millenium Force
Top Thrill Dragster
Kingda Ka
Bizarro
Goliath
Fury 325
El Toro
Recruitment is done for me, so I’m not going to drag this story out! I’ll try to update later tonight or tomorrow if I can so stay tuned
