These are tips and tricks I learned going through recruitment as a New Member and as a sorority member!
1. Dress cute, but comfortable
No matter if you're at a small school or a large school dressing comfortable is key. The days will be long and you want to impress each sorority! So dress cute but comfortable so you're not miserable!
2. Be yourself
Don't go in being someone you're not. At the end of all of it, you'll be unhappy because you're in a place that isn't right for you because you were acting like someone else. If you like to talk, talk. If you're quiet that's OK! Just be yourself!
3. Stay true to yourself
Stay true to your beliefs, your likes, and your dislikes! This is what draws you to a sorority and how you find the one you fit into!
4. Don't be afraid to ask questions in the houses
Asking questions not only helps you find out more about the sorority but it also helps the sorority see that you are interested in them! It makes the conversation flow and everyone gets to know you on a more personal level!
5. Talk, Talk, Talk
Don't be afraid to make conversation! The houses want to get to know you and want you to feel comfortable! Yes, this is a very awkward situation but by talking it makes it easier! You'll always hear this during recruitment but the girls talking to you are just as nervous as you are!
6. Get to know the girls in your group
Here at Troy, our recruitment groups are called our Phi Chi groups, but no matter where you get to know them! Some of them will be your good friends or just familiar faces you see around campus!
7. Don't let your decision be based off of your friends
This is your decision. Do not let it be based on your friends or what others are doing! Don't go somewhere just because your friend is, it might not pay off for you in the end because you might not like it! You want to be like these beautiful ladies! ^^
8. Keep up with your schedule
Don't be late to any parties because you might not be able to go back! Attending the parties and events are imperative to keep up with your schedule.
9. Bring a rain jacket (especially if you are going to school in the south)
In the South, during fall it always rains especially in the month of August, which is when most sorority recruitments take place. Be prepared!
10. Bring snacks
You are going all day and sometimes you will not be able to go back to your dorm or get to a place to eat. Food and drink are imperative!
11. Get plenty of sleep
This week is going to be super stressful! Try to get plenty of rest and sleep because once recruitment is over, classes start and you will not have much time for sleep!
