^^ Excellent advice. I would add that it really paid off for DD to look at as many RIF forms for the chapters at UA as possible to see what kinds of questions were being asked. She then developed her social resume to answer all of the questions asked. Not all sororities have their forms available, but many do.

For example, several forms asked about interests, recent challenges, most meaningful EC experiences, travel, etc. DD included a section in her resume to let her recommenders (word?) know enough personal information about her so that all those questions could be answered.

It really helped get conversations going with the alumnae she met with, and also gave the chapters information as conversation starters. She said that her initial conversations at several houses were about things she had included in that section of her social resume. The recruitment committees really do read them!
