How to stand out as an older PNM + question?

[lovelygirl801]

Hi everyone!

I'm rushing as an older girl (junior) this upcoming semester. The school I'm rushing at isn't extremely competitive, but it is relatively harder for girls that are older. I transferred to this school in the spring and was unable to do spring recruitment, so I waited until fall!

I'm very excited for rush and I'd consider myself a very personable and confident person. Is there any advice anyone can give me to help stand out in a sea of freshmen/sophomores?

I'm also trying to gain letters of recommendation, but it's proving to be a little difficult. I'd prefer to PM with someone on here due to confidentiality, so if anyone can help lead me in a direction for that as well that would be great.

Thank you for reading this!
