After a week that is seemingly endless, bid day finally comes. You are brought together will all of your future best friends and so many surprises await you. You basically step off of the Milledge bus onto the red carpet.
1. The week is FINALLY over
In hindsight, this is a great experience but in the moment it is the most exhausting week ever. You just spent several days waking up way too early and going to talk to girls all day long. You have finally made it to the end and you get to find out your soon to be home.
2. Gifts, gifts, and more gifts
Who doesn't love being showered with gifts and being appreciated? And it just keeps on coming! Once you get to your house you will get a total bid day makeover and get to have fun with your new sisters.
3. Meeting new people
This is such a great experience because sometimes it is hard to meet new people. Everyone is just as anxious as you to have friends, so everyone is more open to creating new friend groups. This is the perfect time to just go into your new home with an open mind and meet some great new girls.
4. It's just a huge celebration
Everyone is so excited for you to be there and it is just a great feeling to feel like you are finally coming home somewhere at such a big school. This is a great time because there will be music, food, dancing, glitter... what more could a girl ask for?
5. You finally found your home
Sorority recruitment might not be the best experience for every girl, but it is such a relief when you finally make it to the house you were meant to be at. There are going to be so many new people you meet who are going to love and support you through your first year at college. It might take some time to find your closest friends, but once you do it will make being at such a large school away from your family, feel a lot smaller and easier to manage.
