Basically being able to hold a conversation for 20 minutes-1 hour that isn't awkward is the first threshold, but then you have to stand out to the members. For the houses everyone wants (aka the ones you listed) you must get above-average scores/comments EVERY round to keep moving on (since most PNMs want these sororitys, they don't have to ask as many girls back). An "average" review by a sister doesn't get you anywhere with the more popular houses. Making sisters remember you and being sure they have more to say about you than "she was nice and cute" is huge. Wear a cool outfit, talk about things that make you stand out/why you’d be a good fit in that sorority, and have a natural conversation. Good luck!

100% agree. To be "above average" you have to be remarkable/memorable in a good way on top of just being a pleasant conversationalist. Plenty of amazing, sweet girls go through recruitment but end up in less selective houses because they were totally unremarkable and never made enough of an impression to get more than just "she was nice". Maybe you had a dope study abroad experience, or you're from a unique place, or you're really into some kind of sports, or you have some kind of interesting hobby. Don't just avoid giving them a reason to drop you, give them something to remember you by.

On top of that, there are things that a LOT of girls are into that you could joke about together. If you think it's appropriate in the moment, quoting The Office, The Bachelor, Vine, Youtubers, etc. might give you more things to talk about.

Agree 100%! Being able to hold an engaging conversation is so important! Talk about your hobbies, interests, anything! And ask the member questions too! It shouldn't feel like she's interviewing you, it should be a fun conversation. Just be confident and be yourself and let the conversation flow. Another way to be remembered is to bond with the members you talk to over something, whether that's a sport you both play or a favorite band.

DPhiE: looks, quirky personalities
AEPhi: instagram popularity, JAPs, partiers
KKG: partiers, typical “sorority girls,” money
ZTA: girls that can be bros with frat guys, social skills

zta looks for girls next door types, cute but not intimidating. kappa looks for diversity & legacy on top of what you said.

dphie are the hardest partiers out of all of them, and aephi is way more hung up on money than kappa. kkg can kinda come off as wannabe dphie/aephi sometimes but at the end of the day they're still looking to add to their sisterhood, not just for rich white girls. plus they're way more diverse than aephi, not at all the skinny blonde "typical sorority girls"

it doesn’t matter too much and letters of recommendation can be given but they aren’t required. some parities value legacies more than others.
