decisions

Ladies, 100% this post. If you don't like your choices today, you aren't going to get a better choice with a snap or COB. The houses that ask you to pref see you as sisters and are prepared to offer you a bid! Go to pref; it can be a game changer! Take your bid and give that house a chance.

Honestly go in with an open mind, even if you don't like your houses, they see something in you that would fit in really well into their chapter. Also, don't go for tier, go for sisterhood. If you feel like you could see yourself comfortable with these girls being your friends for your college years and beyond, go for that. At the end of the day, when you're older you're not going to look back and say "oh yeah i was top tier in college" you're going to say "i made the most incredible friends in college".

Personally, I was really disappointed from my chapters from round 3 to prefs because I thought I didn't belong in the house I chose, but I went through with it and I have some of the most incredible friends. Your Greek life experience is what you make of it, so good luck to all of you girls tonight, and just feel out your house for what they offer!!

I rushed my freshman dropped out before preffed as I did not like any of the houses. I was a freshman. My roommate was a freshman too, she got Kd. Three of my good friends got Adpi and ddd. I rerushrd as a sophomore thing now I have friends in Kd, Adpi and Tri delt. I was sure one would pick me. I got dropped by ddd, Adpi and Kd when I rushed. I preffed at Zta , Dg and xo. I was almost certain Dg was going to offer me a bid. I was so surprised it was xo. I cried and was upset I still did not get a top house again. Fast forward two years. I love xo! They are genuine girls with big hearts and I have made many new friends. The moral of the story is you end up where you are suppose to be! I am a lot wiser now . All of the houses at UF are awesome.

I didn't like my house all through rush and thought they were so in my face. But at pref I completely changed my mind and now I couldn't see myself anywhere else so please just go in with a clean state of mind. And keep in mind that you've only even talked to a small percentage of girls from the houses at this far, and you haven't even met your pledge class yet which is ~probably~ where you'll find your niche within your niche.

Points made here and in the "dropped..confused?" thread are really important aspects that PNMs need to consider as they move into prefs. This is ultimately your experience! What other people have to say doesn't really matter, it's where you feel happy and valued that is most important.

I'm so nervous right now! I really like one house and am afraid I won't get invited back tonight. I am trying to go in with an open mind. Any last minute advice from members???

So I got two of my top three that I wanted most- am I mostly likely to get a bid?

After prefs what are my chances of getting my number 1 choice? Is voting just based on today or like an accumulated score from all my rounds with them?
