Recruitment is just around the corner and I started to think about when I was going through recruitment. I was so nervous and excited. I thought nobody was going to like me and that I was going to fall on my face walking in to see the different chapters. But I didn't and I can say with confidence that accepting my bid was the best decision I ever made. This goes out to the Potential New Members going through recruitment this upcoming fall. I know how you feel, I went through all the emotions almost two years ago.

My advice to you is to go in with an open mind. Not look and see who is "top tier," every sorority is different and looking up who is the prettiest will not help you see where your home is. Sororities are unique, they each have different philanthropies and different girls. What I did was go on the different sororities Instagram pages and look at the girls and see some of the philanthropies they did, or how connected everyone is. It helps you get a better view of who the different sororities.

Be yourself

Don't pretend to be someone you're not, talk about high school or your hobbies. Be yourself and the girls will love you. Sisters want to get to know the real you. Sisters are so excited to meet new girls, that they love to hear about your favorite books or your summer travels. You never know who you will connect with, maybe a girl is as obsessed with Disney like you are or loves working out as much as you do.

Have fun

Your feet will be dying and you're going to be so tired, but its so worth it on Bid Day to run home. Enjoy meeting all the girls in your schools Greek life and see what your campus has to offer. A lot of Greek organizations support each others philanthropies, and are friends with different people in other organizations. You experience so many emotions during recruitment but you have to have fun with it.

Recruitment is such an exciting experience for everyone, you get to meet so many new people and you get to find the place where you belong. So just breathe in and breathe out, you're going to be nervous and that's okay. Trust me the girls on the other end feel the same. So go in with an open mind and just be yourself and I'm sure you'll have the most amazing experience of your life.
