[quote=Anonymous]I've heard the same about Indiana. I've even heard that some kids who love it there first semester want to transfer after they do not get a bid because they are so surprised and disappointed.

I do think that girls make a connection, but I just assume that there is not enough space for all of the amazing girls. It can be such a blow if that is something you've envisioned for yourself as part of the college experience.

Indiana was one of my DD's top choices and this was a conversation point. At first, I thought it was ridiculous to even include it on her list of pros and cons, but after we got talking, I realized how important it was to her to be in a sorority and how not making one would really be hard for her. It was not her top reason for choosing a different school, but it was on her list.

That said, for OP, I am assuming this happened at the beginning of the year or semester? Is your DD still interested in joining a sorority? Depending on the school, if your DD continues to have good relationships with the girls, she should discuss whether she should rush again. Girld in the house can definitely pull for her if she is still interested. Though I wouldn't be surprised if the experience turned her away from Greek life. But please know that just because she sis not get a bid, it does not mean that her connections were not real. [/quote]
