by: neep advideok soooo I rushed as a soph. (I'm a transfer from the east coast) and things didn't exactly work out I did have two houses at the end and ik most people would say I should've tried it out but I 100% knew those houses weren't for me. They were a nice bunch of girls but I have to pay for it all myself so I didn't want to spend that kind of money if it's be something I'd have to force myself to like. And I'm determined to make it work here and not going back home. So my question is does anyone know a decent way to meet other friends would be? or like some group message of girls that dropped rush lol and I know there are clubs, I'm in a couple but they are smaller and not a ton of meetings so not exactly a making friends environment

Being a transfer can be challenging and lonely -- and you need to be one tough cookie to go through rush. I speak from experience. I'm sorry you've had a hard time finding a group of friends. My ideas may not be brilliant but I made some of my closest friends by reaching out to classmates in my major. I just made myself see if any of the girls I liked wanted to grab dinner or coffee (etc.) after class. It was hard but I put myself out there. The other thing I did is play a club sport. Obviously, that part depends on what your interests are. I promise you will make friends. It takes a bit more effort and time than making friends on your hall your freshman year but it is possible.
I know you're not asking about sororities but I ended up joining a house I didn't think would and I've actually had tons of fun and met lots of nice girls. It really is what you make of it and it's impossible not to find people you like in a house of 400. But you don't have to join a sorority to make friends!
You're brave for reaching out and with that attitude you'll find your tribe. Hugs to you!

I’m a freshman and dropped out of rush. It has been pretty tough watching wveryone go to their swaps and date parties I know. I thought it’d be easier to meet people in classes or in clubs but it’s really not... Just letting u know not everyone at ole Miss is Greek! Even though it sometimes feels like it!
