Decided to join a sorority? Here are 10 tips to help you get through\u00a0sorority recruitment at the University of Toronto!<\/p>\n

1. Don\u2019t Be Afraid<\/h3>\n

Seriously. It might seem intimidating at first, but every PNM (Potential New Member) is in the\u00a0same boat\u00a0you are so don\u2019t be scared to open up and find a friend within the group you\u2019re placed in. It\u2019s a 3-day process so you\u2019ll definitely see similar faces throughout that weekend, why not make some friends and potential sisters while you\u2019re at it?<\/p>\n

2. Don\u2019t Make Assumptions<\/h3>\n

Being part of a sorority is amazing, but joining a house because the house name sounds cool won\u2019t do you any good. Make connections with the girls inside the house and make sure you\u00a0ask a lot of questions! Don\u2019t make\u00a0your decision based off of a single girl from a house, try to give each one a fair chance and you\u2019ll end up with the one that\u2019s right for you!<\/p>\n

3. Make Yourself Memorable<\/h3>\n

Think of this as a job interview where you want to showcase your talents and show them what sets you apart from other PNMs. Remember, you only have a few minutes when talking to each girl from a\u00a0house so keep it short,\u00a0sweet and memorable. Make a good impression in those few minutes with each girl you meet and you\u2019ll more likely be called back. Even if you don\u2019t, you can never have enough friends!<\/p>\n

4. Get The Facts<\/h3>\n

Being a member of a sorority is no cheap venture, so make sure to get information from each house about the living costs and dues. Take them into consideration before committing to a house. Falling in love with a house is easy, but you don\u2019t want to disappoint your sisters when you can\u2019t commit to your financial responsibilities. In the end, we\u2019re all just trying to keep our houses up and running so try and be wary of the commitments that need to be made before joining a sorority.<\/p>\n

5. Don\u2019t Listen To The Movies<\/h3>\n

The media has negatively portrayed sororities, mostly because American sororities have had some bad press throughout their existence, but UofT sororities are nothing like what\u2019s on TV. Weekly meetings, socials, philanthropy nights and volunteering is what sorority life is about, not crazy ragers. And don\u2019t worry, all UofT sororities are haze-free and alcohol-free houses; they take these rules very seriously. So when you join any UofT sorority, you don\u2019t have to run around in your underwear on campus at 3am or be pressured to drink. It\u2019s a safe place because no one likes a bully.<\/p>\n

<\/h6>\n

6. Tell Your Friends<\/h3>\n

So many people at UofT, UTM and UTSC don\u2019t even know that sororities exist in\u00a0Toronto and miss out on the opportunity to be a part of Greek life! Grab a friend or even your lab partner from tutorial and sign up for recruitment. It\u2019s honestly a great experience, even if you don\u2019t end up loving a house in the end (which you will), you\u2019ll be able to tell people what it\u2019s really like to be a sorority girl and spread awareness for those who know nothing about sorority life.<\/p>\n

7. Wear Something Comfortable<\/h3>\n

Obviously check the weather before getting dressed for recruitment weekend. You\u2019ll want to wear comfortable shoes that won\u2019t go south on you after a couple steps outside. Looking cute and presentable is what you want to go for but don\u2019t sacrifice your feet for the look. Some houses are a bit further from the others and you\u2019ll have to walk with your group to each of them. Buses may be available for houses on the other side of campus, but don\u2019t rely on them! You never know what kind of technical difficulties may arise so dress accordingly!<\/p>\n

8. Ask Questions<\/h3>\n

Don\u2019t feel like you have to blend in with everyone else and keep quiet even though you have questions about sorority life. Remember, when you commit to a house, it\u2019s for life! So when you\u2019re unsure about anything, ASK ASK ASK! No question is dumb and another PNM is probably wondering the same thing. Whether it\u2019s about living situations, financial commitments, or philanthropic responsibilities make sure to gather all your facts before choosing a house. Sorority girls were once in the same position you are, so whatever questions you have, they\u2019ve probably had when they were PNMs.<\/p>\n

9. Take Some Notes<\/h3>\n

It\u2019s a bit of an overwhelming weekend so grab a pen\/pencil and the booklet handed out to you and scribble down some notes after you visit each house. At the end of the day, you may not exactly remember which girl you talked and\u00a0which house they were in so it\u2019s always easier when you can refer back to your notes rather than guessing. Even writing down \u201cthe one that\u2019s far away\u201d or \u201ccurly haired girl\u201d can help jog your memory after a day of visiting sorority houses and talking to so many girls.<\/p>\n

10. It\u2019s Never Too Late<\/h3>\n

It doesn\u2019t matter what year you\u2019re in, 1st<\/sup>, 2nd<\/sup>, 3rd<\/sup> or even 4th<\/sup>, sorority life is always a good choice whether you\u2019re fresh out of high school, or on your way out of UofT. It\u2019s a lifetime commitment and you\u2019ll always have your sisters to rely on. Whether it\u2019s a shoulder to cry on, someone to bring you coffee whilst stu(dying), celebrating a good grade or just simply being there for you, your sisters will always have your back no matter what year you\u2019re in.<\/p>\n
