My daughter went through recruitment earlier this year as a freshman and it was just as tough as we heard a southern rush is. Baylor sororities have casual drop in events in the fall. FYI - students should consider this the beginning of recruitment! Make a point to make contacts in each house and follow up with them each time you visit (remember names, conversations, etc) After a few visits, let girls know you are interested. When January recruitment comes around you will know some people and that will help. In most houses- only girls you have visited with can vote for you so, meet as many girls as possible and follow up with them on consequent visits. Letters of recommendations are suggested and I would recommend more than one recommendation per house. You want to stand out from others that just did one recommendation. It is not uncommon for a rushee to feel she has had a great first day and then end up getting dropped from the majority of houses. There were many girls in tears (in the dorms) after day 1. My daughter ended up getting in the house she liked the most (she is a legacy, which I am sure helped - though she had friends who were legacies for other houses and got dropped by them ) My last word of advice is - there is no way girls can get to truly know you after a few days of short conversations. Do not take any of this personally! There are many great organizations at Baylor where you can make friends. I have always thought it was easier to go through recruitment sophomore year after you have made some friends in various houses. Best wishes !
