I’ll be as politically correct as possible with these “stereotypes,” as I’m not a fan of stereotypes in general. Also, please take them with a grain of salt. Each sorority has a wonderful group of girls and a lot to offer and there are also members of each that break the stereotypes!

Kappa Kappa Gamma: Probably one of the most (if not the most) “popular,” sought after sorority. The “rich blonde” type. I don’t mean that in a bad way, because every kappa I met was incredibly sweet.

Delta Gamma: Southern belle, conservative vibe. They are a bit more diverse than kappa, but with a comparable reputation. They have their partiers but I also know some that didn’t like to party. They all seem really outgoing and fun.

Pi Beta Phi: Reputation for being more christian and “innocent.” Also a good reputation, maybe not AS sought after as Kappa and DG. Really close knit group of girls, all adorable.

Delta Delta Delta: More of a party rep. They are very diverse; as in many different races AND many different personalities. I love this about them because they are very hard to stereotype and as long as you’re easy to talk to, you’ll fit right in.

Kappa Alpha Theta: Also diverse, not as much as Tri Delt in my opinion. I really don’t know too much about them other than the few freshmen I met. Met a lot of athletes when I rushed, though, so you can say they are kind of sporty. Fun to hang out with.

Alpha Phi: FOR FRESHMAN, who only have stereotypes to go on, one of the least sought after chapters. This is really unfortunate though, because this is honestly one of my favorite sororities. All the girls I’ve met are really down to earth and fun, and all love their sorority.

Gamma Phi Beta: once again, FOR FRESHMAN, Seen as the “bottom” sorority. When I rushed, though, I probably had one of THE best, easiest conversations I’ve had at that sorority. They are all so super sweet, everyone at Pepperdine knows if you meet a Gamma Phi, it will be impossible to hate them (unless you’re one of those stuck up *****es who actually care about “status”).

Like I said before, each sorority is amazing in its own way. Trust the process and trust that you’ll end up where you’re supposed to be. I saw so many girls (myself included) drop out of recruitment and realize that the sorority they blew off was the PERFECT match after all. Good luck to whoever rushes :)
