depledging after accepting a bid
by: pnmDoes depledging a sorority you received a bid from ruin your chances of rushing again next year?

Here’s the thing: SMU has deferred rush. The actives have been watching and getting to know the PNM’s since August, in addition to rush week. So if you drop and decide to re-rush next year, you need to think really damn hard about why you think you’d have better results next year. Some chapters on campus have a “once cut, always cut” policy nationally so you won’t be eligible for a “do-over” with those.
It’s highly likely that the bid you got is you’re only chance to be Greek at SMU. The better option is to make the most of getting to know your new sisters and making friends. Drop before initiation if you’re still not feeling it, but only drop if you gave it your all AND you recognize the odds are stacked against a successful sophomore re-rush.

Mostly correct, but no national sorority has a once cut, always cut policy. Chapters may have it and they will say they do so as to not have to deal with a pnm again, but it is certainly not any national's policy.

hi, is this true for spring freshman that we’re admitted to the spring and weren’t here in the fall? I didn’t have a great experience like a few other small girls who rushed who were new faces, my friends from fall told me to wait for sophomore year because I will get to know the girls

Newly Shocked GDIs,
"Fall Recruitment" means Sororities 7 & 8
As you get in-line for the Panhellenic Desk after being cut by your top prefs, be prepared for the following Panhellenic comments:
"open-minded" means Sororities 7 & 8
"COB" means Sororities 7 & 8
"Fall Recruitment" means Sororities 7 & 8
"stupid rankings" means Sororities 7 & 8
"second-round sophomore recruitment" means Sorority 8
Harsh Facts....

I have friends whose daughters dropped as freshmen and re-rushed the next year under separate quota for sophomores. They went to the mixers of sororities, lunches, etc., with the actives who invited them during the fall of their soph year. One got XO and another Piphi as sophs. Is there still a separate quota for sophomores? This was several years ago.

It depends what house you ran home to, what your expectations are for next year, and how much the girls in your desired house like you and will fight for you.
