Made you smile. On your worst days, it will be your sisters in this new group that bring the light into your day. Make sure that the feeling you had when meeting this group filled you with warm and fuzzies!

Motivated you. Though sororities are a social group on campus, it is so important to be surrounded by people that will constantly push you to be your best. If you met girls that inspired you, and seemed like they could be your role models in any aspect, this is probably a perfect group of people for you!

Welcomed you. For me, I felt an overwhelming sense of love and welcome when I walked into my sorority’s rush. I knew I was at home with the girls from the second I stepped inside.
-
Brought out the best in you. After talking to so many different people, who made you feel the most you? Who let you talk about what made you happiest? Can you see yourself becoming the best version of yourself by being surrounded by these girls? If you do, this is most definitely the group you belong in!
-
Made you feel at home. The feeling you got when you walked into the room will be one that sticks around for when you have to choose a group. Feeling like you belong, like you immediately have friends, and now sisters, is the group that you were meant to be in! I’m sure after reading this you have one in your head that truly felt like home. THAT sorority is where you are meant to be.
