Hi, so I’m a first generation student and I’m transferring from a community college this fall. I’m currently a junior and I would like to say I pretty well rounded. I was an officer in multiple clubs both in HS and at my CC, worked multiple jobs, have some awards and student conferences under my belt, and graduated with my associates with a 3.4 GPA. I know my grades could be better but it was hard to keep up everything while working 20-30 hours a week. That being said, I want to rush in the fall but because of certain stereotypes or requirements, I’m very skeptical if it’s worth it. I’ve seen so many posts about things like zip coding, lack of diversity (I am a women of color), and the crazy competition it takes to get into one. I know my chances getting into certain houses that typically ranked “top” like Tri Delt or DZ can be cut because of me being a junior but will it be cut because of looks or wealth/popularity as well? It sounds crazy but I really wanted to join these houses but I’m afraid I won’t even stand a chance in rushing because of the all factors that fit into the whole “rich, white girl” stereotype of Greek life. If I don’t fit into these typically houses, does anyone know what houses I might be good with? I’m quite afraid I won’t end up with any house on bid day. I am open to honest opinions and honestly, I rather be told the hurtful truth than for anyone to sugarcoat anything. If my chances aren’t high, I like to know beforehand so I can explore other options at TAMU. Thank you for any responses!
