Worth the Wait!!!!












Hello, Inspiring future Greek-ers!!! (Okay so I know that's not a word)
With the Fall Semester behind us,  I know most of you are gearing up for hopefully becoming a member of XYZ Sorority/Fraternity next semester (For those of you in College) or in the Spring (For those of you inspiring to join an Alumnae Chapter)

This is a time where your nerves may kick in, you are on the watch for flyers posted around your college campus/or in the community, or depending on the organization you want to join, you are praying that someone will sponsor you and ask you to an invitation-only Rush. (The latter usually happens only at the alumnae level only)

PREPARE!!!!

Well, I think I covered most of it in my previous blogs……….But here is one thing that I can't stress enough, make sure you triple, quadruple check your application. I have heard a lot of sad stories where people were denied based on the fact that their application was not complete. Also, make sure you KNOW the person who is writing your letter of recommendation. Another horror thing I heard was people getting letters of recs from INACTIVE members. Now the members should know better than to write you a letter of rec, knowing good-n-well they are not financial.

(Financial- Members who pay dues annually to the organization) That's why it is better than you ask someone you are close with, someone you know. Personally to write you a letter of recommendation. I have had some prospective members ask me HERE on this blog if I would write them one. Umm….I don't know you like that. Sure you sent me an email every now or then (and some that were the FIRST email they sent me), but I am not writing a LOR for anyone I don't personally know. Now there is one lady that I have established a relationship with since I started writing this blog four years ago. She was a  Junior in HS back then, and we have too many emails going back and forth to count. She also friended me on FB. Since then I felt as if I know her, and if SHE was to ask me to write her one, I might consider it because I feel as if I "know her."

Get your finances in order. Now, do I have to tell you that? I hope not! I would wish that the moment you decided to join a Greek letter organization, you started to save up. Also, make sure you know that IF you are chosen, being a member can be quite expensive. I can't even tell you how much money I spent on Delta….from national dues, conventions, conferences, etc. so be prepared!

All the other stuff is covered in my previous blogs, be there on time, dress to impress, etc.

Good luck to you all, and HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL!!! I hope to receive a ton of emails from you stating that you crossed into (insert_greek_letter) LAND!

  3. Hello I love your blog they are very informative. I was wondering in terms of dues what if you are not able to come up with the money because of financial reasons? Is there any type of scholarship or assistance for less fortunate individuals who really want to go Greek?

    1. Hi!
      For the sorority that I have just been accepted into, if you do not have the money you are unable to join. Unfortunately, they would like all of the money up front. I hope it works out.

  9. I have been in great debate about attending an MIP meeting for an undergrad sorority at an HBCU. I am 34 and I am not sure that I would seriously be considered and second if there are any age limits.

  10. Thanks for the advice. I am confused as to which sorority I should check into on the alumni level; mainly from people suggesting what sorority I should join funny story just graduated so i know an undergraduate chapter is out of the question. Nevertheless, I did come down to two, now I don't know if you can answer this but how were you able to make your choice, let alone ignore other people's suggestions? And I think its just me but I do feel a little guilty/ashamed of myself for changing my mind after telling a friend or two what I was going to join sophomore year. I don't know if I shoukd get myself inorder first or just join an alumni chapter and hope I don't feel guilty about my choice. I know this comment kind of went everywhere sorry :(
