i don't want to go my sister's house
by: .does anyone know somebody who has gone a different house than their older sister? my sister is my best friend and i love her with my entire heart. she loves her sorority and before rush she kept saying how excited she was for me to be in her house. my sister's friends are great and the girls i talked this week were super nice, i just feel like the vibes of the house are not me. i feel like i want to go a more academically inclined house, if that makes sense, and i know that at least three sororities i have left fit that description. i'm scared that it might we weird if i try to cut my sister's house though. any advice?

Call her up and have the conversation. Sisters x 2 would be fun, but just like she chose the sorority that was best for her you have to do the same. Hopefully tomorrow morning you get back your two favorites. If you get your sister’s sorority back on your list tomorrow, I’m going to be real with you, you’ll be higher up on their bid list. And if the house that you want has you high up enough on their bid list, then you’ll be matched for a bid assuming you rank them #1. However, in that scenario if your favorite doesn’t rank you high enough on their bid list, then most likely you’ll get a bid from your sister’s sorority. That’s why I think having the conversation with your sister is important. Legacies, especially of sisters who are actives, typically have bid list priority in ranking. If you’re honest with her, she can tell her chapter tomorrow night when they vote that her sorority isn’t where your heart is at so they can rank you low and you have a more favorable chance of getting a bid from the sorority you truly want to be at. If you think telling her this might cause issues, it’s fine you don’t have to, but just know like I previously said there’s a fair chance you’ll end up in her sorority if it’s on your list in the morning. I think most sisters just want you to be happy so just give talking your feelings out with her a try. Out of respect for her feelings, you definitely don’t want to blindside her come early morning of bid day when the final bid list is made if she’s expecting to see your name on it.

You have to be VERY vocal to the other houses that you like and let them know you’re not interested in your sister’s house. But say it in a very kind and respectful way.
When we know girls have an in-house sister at another house, we assume she’s pledging there and we’re more inclined to drop her before pref to make room for a girl that might actually pledge us.

This is true. Legacies who make it to pref will get ranked higher and it’s going to be statistically favored for match unless you’re a top girl at the other house’s on the list.
