This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Tufts chapter.
- Keep an open mind. Do not go into recruitment set on one sorority. All the chapters have something unique to offer!
- Present the best version of yourself! Don’t change your persona or image to fit a sorority. Always be yourself!
- Get to know the other girls pledging! Instead of sticking to your normal friend group make an effort to meet new people while walking to the different parties.
- Don’t choose a sorority based on your friends. You will still be friends regardless of what sorority you end up in!
- Don’t be afraid to talk to your Rho Gamma– they’re there to help!
- Don’t be afraid to ask real questions. This is the only way you can really feel which chapter suits you.
- Form your own opinions based on the conversations and interactions you have with the members of each chapter. Trust your instincts!
- Bring water. Staying hydrated will keep you feeling energized and talkative.
- Try to have meaningful conversations at the parties. Recruitment can be filled with a lot of small talk. Meaningful and non repetitive conversations will help you remember each sorority better!
- Take photos on Bid Day!!! Have fun and don’t take it all so seriously!
