tbh i rushed as a sophomore and i desperately wish i would’ve rushed as a freshman. i basically did what your mom wants you to do lol and i got extremely depressed bc i wasn’t making friends and my friends/roomie who had rushed sororities were more focused on hanging out and going out with their own chapters. (obvi not the case for everyone, plenty of ppl have great freshmen/college years without being in greek life) and its not just for social reasons that i would rush beforehand. older girls in your chapter usually LOVE to help younger girls — be it by helping you pick your class schedule if you’re in the same major to encouraging you to join and apply for orgs. i WISH i had someone who could’ve encouraged me to be more involved in freshman year bc it really does set the tone for the rest of your college career. HOWEVER, sororities are hella expensive, esp at Bama. if ur parents can’t (or won’t) pay for it, you would have to use financial aid/take out loans or get a job. If it’s simply something u can’t afford rn then waiting a year while working is your best option!
