First-Years and Fall Recruitment

Starting college can be an isolating experience, especially for first-years who are far from home.

Without fall sorority recruitment, many students struggle to find their community until months into the year.

First-years, who are usually the ones rushing, often lack concrete connections or a stable friend group when coming into college.

Rushing provides a great opportunity to meet people with similar interests, and even if one does not get a bid, it is a great way to meet other people who are also rushing.

Notably, almost every woman who rushes at Tulane gets a bid, allowing them to start off with a friend group immediately.

First-years are usually the ones rushing, and coming into college, they likely do not have concrete connections or a stable friend group.

Author's summary: First-years benefit from fall recruitment.
