CTransfer - what year are you going to be and are you in a sorority where you currently are? Typically, the older you are, the harder it is to get into as they prefer to get mostly freshmen who will be around for a while. My D is a current freshman and went through rush this year. At the end she was left with 2 houses that she just didn’t feel were right for her so she dropped out. With rush being second semester, she already had made friends, some who joined sororities and some who didn’t. They all still hang out together and it doesn’t seem to matter one bit if one’s in a sorority or not.

She did end up rushing a business fraternity even though she isn’t studying business. I was surprised at how selective it was taking only 33 out of 112 rushees, if I remember correctly. It has been a great experience for her and she doesn’t seem interested in trying sorority rush again next year at this point.
