ARE YOU LOOKING AT TIKTOK, YOUTUBE, AND GOOGLE FOR ADVICE ABOUT SORORITY RECRUITMENT?

 
 
 

ADVICE WILL NOT HELP YOU GET A BID.

The advice is OUTDATED

The advice is NOT RELEVANT to your college

The advice is TOO GENERAL (everyone is prepping the same way)

 
 

WHEN YOU USE ADVICE, YOU are SAM THE OVERLOOKED POTENTIAL NEW MEMBER.

 

Looked at her college’s Panhellenic website and left confused — “Do I need recommendations? How do I get a bid?”

Turned to TikTok, YouTube, and Google for advice.

Prepared the same way as most potential new members. The same preparation made her look like everyone else (she does not stand out).

At Round 2, she was dropped by most of the sororities she likes and does not have options.

 

sorority recruitment is a communication game. 

To get a bid to a sorority you love, you have to communicate [before AND during sorority recruitment] that you are the right fit for the sorority. A step-by-step plan tells you HOW and WHEN to communicate.

 
 

TO GET A BID TO A SORORITY YOU LOVE, YOU NEED A STEP-BY-STEP PLAN.

 

Have members EXCITED to meet you.

CONNECT with the members during sorority recruitment.

Be INVITED back to sororities that you like.

WHEN YOU USE A STEP-BY-STEP PLAN, YOU BECOME BROOKE THE RUSH CRUSH.

 

She created a step-by-step plan and knew when to implement it.

The members knew her name and were excited to meet her.

She used her conversations to stand out and communicated that she was a good fit [Gained Rush Crush Status].

She had options throughout sorority recruitment.

 

who do you want to be? sam (the overlooked potential new member) or Brooke (the rush crush)?

Many do not realize the most competitive sororities ONLY invite back around 30% of potential new members to ROUND 2.

Would they pick you?

Think of it this way. Let’s say you applied to college. Ten students applied, and the college can only accept three students.

  • Are you in the top three?

  • Did you have an incredible resume [compared to the others]?

  • Did you have better test scores?

  • Did you have leadership roles to help you stand out?

If you knew what the college looked for in a potential student, you would know how to stand out and be in the top three.

The same idea applies to sorority recruitment. Are you in the top 30% of ALL potential new members? Why should the members invite you to Round 2?

Many potential new members spend weeks focusing ONLY on the material aspects of sorority recruitment – what to wear, makeup, hair, the color of their social resume, etc. It seems like the material things help you stand out and get a great score. BUT…the color of your social resume, a recruitment packet, a Cartier LOVE bracelet, and Golden Goose sneakers will not get a bid.

To get a bid to a sorority you love, you have to communicate you are the right fit. You have to communicate BEFORE and DURING sorority recruitment. To know how and when to communicate, you want to use the CRUSH Method to gain Rush Crush Status.
THE CRUSH METHOD:
C
REATE YOUR LIST
RECOGNITION BY THE MEMBERS [MEMBERS KNOW YOUR NAME]
UNLOCK YOUR POTENTIAL
STAND OUT WITH YOUR CONVERSATIONS
HAVE OPTIONS

When you have a step-by-step plan to stand out for sorority recruitment, you know how and when to communicate.

 THESE WOMEN GOT BIDS, AND SO CAN YOU!

“I was so nervous going into sorority recruitment, especially going to a school with a competitive greek system. I knew very little about Greek life and I had absolutely no idea what to expect! Sloan's program taught me basically everything I needed to know and allowed me to have a successful recruitment experience. Before going through the program, I had no idea how to excel at small talk, the correct mindset I needed to have, the social media strategy, etc. and afterward, I seriously felt like such a pro! I felt extremely confident walking into sorority recruitment and I had very little nerves at all because Sloan prepared me for everything! Without the help of Sloan and this program, I do not think I would've ended up in my dream sorority and I cannot recommend this program enough!! Sloan is absolutely incredible and will help you receive a bid to your dream sorority!” — Gracie

“Being the first to go greek in my immediate family, I was a little worried that I would be out of the loop going to a college with competitive greek life but this program changed that. The program helps you find exactly what you are looking for as a PNM (potential new member) before even going through recruitment so you can find which chapter you mesh with best. It gave me insight into what chapters will ask and how you can respond in a way that best fits your own personality and interests!” — Megan 

“I went through recruitment at a large SEC school my freshman year of college. To say that it went poorly would be an understatement. I was sad, rejected, and had no plans to go through recruitment again. But, I ended up transferring schools and after a lot of encouragement from friends, I decided to go through recruitment again. After going through Sloan’s program I finally saw and understood how recruitment works, what I did wrong the first time, and had a strategy in place to try again. Even in the midst of a pandemic, Sloan gave me strategies that worked and prepared me for virtual sorority recruitment. After going through recruitment my sophomore year I was kept by all of my top sororities and essentially got to choose which sorority I wanted. I am happy to say that I am now a member of Alpha Delta Pi. Thank you, Sloan!” — Emma

“Going through CRUSH helped me so much while prepping and going through the whole recruitment process. Before CRUSH, I had no idea how rush worked and how I could stand out as a PNM.  Thankfully Sloan worked with me and taught me the skills I needed to get into my top house! I’m beyond excited and I can’t recommend this program enough!” — Abby

“I came across Getting the Bid when I was preparing to go through recruitment and I can honestly say I am so happy I found Sloan! I love the sorority I joined and I am sure going through the process without her wouldn’t have been the same. Getting the Bid not only helped me get into the sorority of my dreams, but it taught me amazing small talk skills, helped me change my mindset about the process, and overall made me so much more confident! I felt so prepared and comfortable going into recruitment, and having Sloan be there for me every step of the way made it so much easier and less stressful. I honestly recommend the program to anyone that is thinking about or wants to go through sorority recruitment, you will learn skills that are not only for recruitment but for the rest of your life.” —Clarissa

“I truly can't describe how much Sloan and the program helped me handle sorority recruitment and eventually get a bid to my top sorority! I felt so prepared going into recruitment, and I knew exactly what I wanted from my future sorority experience thanks to the videos and journal prompts. I really don't think I would've had such a positive experience if it wasn't for Sloan!” — Allie

“When I first went through recruitment as a freshman, I was scared and anxious and had no idea how to stand out. Needless to say, despite being invited back to my favorite houses during all of recruitment, I was less than thrilled on preference and bid day. Of course, I tried to keep an open mind when I opened my envelope on bid day, but I knew that this sorority just wasn't for me. 

I decided to try again as a sophomore, and that's when I found Getting The Bid! The course and e-books were so helpful. But even beyond that, my 1:1's and conversations with Sloan were really what allowed me to go into rush confidently- and more importantly, receive a bid! By sticking to Sloan's method and having a list of qualities I wanted in a sorority, I was able to choose the house that was right for me- not just the one I felt pressured to choose. I only just received my bid recently, but I already feel so welcome and changed as a person. I would recommend Getting The Bid to everyone- it changed my life for the better!” — Cheryl

“Going into sorority recruitment I was terrified. The idea of attending an out-of-state school and going through this process paralyzed me with fear. But, with the help of Sloan and the program, I was able to gain the confidence to walk into recruitment with the absolute certainty that I was going to join my dream sorority. Sloan’s constant guidance and support during recruitment week made it possible for me to find my home away from home, and I couldn’t be happier.” — Maren

“I don’t know what I would have done without Sloan! For as long as I could remember I’ve known that I wanted to be in a sorority, but ever since I was a kid I’ve viewed myself as shy and awkward and was so nervous to go through recruitment. All of the meetings helped my confidence as much as they helped my conversation skills if not more. Because of Getting the Bid I went into rush feeling prepared and excited. Throughout the week, Sloan was always checking up on me and giving me tips which eased my fears every day. When I was faced with a hard decision, I called Sloan and she walked me through it! I had a great recruitment and got a bid to the house of my dreams all thanks to Sloan! I could not be more thankful and would recommend her to anyone going through recruitment!” — Allison

“This program truly helped me feel more confident in myself and helped me grow as a person. I know that the skills I learned in this program will not only help me for recruitment, but also help me with interviews and other important social events in my future.” — Lauren

“I am so glad I joined Sloan's program. I have always known I wanted to be in a sorority but was unsure how to navigate and prepare for recruitment. I got a bid from my first choice and it was all due to Sloan's support and coaching. The weekly zoom meetings practicing small talk were extremely helpful and gave me the confidence I needed for sisterhood round [round 1]. During the actual recruitment weekend, I received text messages of encouragement and tips from Sloan. It was a comfort knowing each morning waking up I would have a message from Sloan to get me through the day. I would recommend the program to anyone thinking about going through sorority recruitment.” — Kaitlyn 

“I'm the mom. Yesterday was bid day. I can't tell you how many times in the past 2 months I have said "Thank GOD for Sloan!" I was Greek in college but believe me, times have changed. AND daughters that are about to leave for college are not in the habit of taking advice from their moms. Sloan is a wealth of information and has innovative and successful methods to set your daughter up for success. In addition to being an excellent coach with loads of inside scoop, Sloan is kind and encouraging and really cares about the young ladies. She brought out the best in my daughter! Yesterday my sweet girl accepted a bid from her dream sorority. I seriously don't know if that would have happened without the confidence that Sloan's coaching gave her. HIGHLY recommend.” — Mom of a student at the University of Alabama

 What do you gain when you join CRUSH?

Prepare Correctly for Your College

Why do you need a prepping for sorority recruitment plan?

Imagine you run for President of the United States. On election day, you announce you are running by making an Instagram post.

Will you be elected President of the United States?

Probably not. Some have already voted. Those who follow you might not see you are running. Some do not follow you on Instagram. Some have already selected another candidate.

If you want to become the next President, in the months leading up to the election, you need to campaign. People have to know your name and believe in you. The same idea applies to sorority recruitment. Many potential new members wait until Round 1 to get their names out there. If you wait until Round 1, it is TOO LATE. The sororities spend months leading up to sorority recruitment pre-screening potential new members. To have options at Round 2, the members have to know who you are. What is included in your prepping plan?

  • Creating your list

  • How to get recommendation letters

  • How to create your social resume, cover letters, and recruitment packets [if necessary]

  • Social Media prep

  • Get members to know your name

  • Create video script and short answers for registration [if necessary]

 

Gain Confidence

Some potential new members are dropped from sororities they love and cannot regain their confidence. Others walk into sorority recruitment nervous and unsure of abilities. Your mindset sets you apart from the other potential new members. With this strategy, you will:

  • Get outside of your comfort zone by using micro-steps to gain confidence

  • Walk into sorority recruitment empowered by using the 4 step formula

  • Show off your incredible personality

 

Have Unique Conversation and Connect with the Members

Most of the members are 19 to 21-year-olds. When interviewing potential new members, the members do not care what their majors are, what they did over the summer, or their passions. They look for connections and FRIENDS. When you form connections, the members can see you in the sorority. If they can see you in their sorority, you stand out, gain Rush Crush status, and get a great score. A great score helps you get invited back to each round. With this strategy, you will:

  • Have unique conversations that have you standing out from the other potential new members

  • Ask questions that spark REAL conversations

  • Be the potential new member that the members are talking about — Don’t you want them to say, “OMG! I want her. She would be the perfect Little!”

 

Optimize Sorority Recruitment [Play the Game]

Sorority recruitment is a numbers and communication game. After each round, each sorority has to drop a certain percentage of potential new members. This percentage is created by Release Figure Methodology [RFM]. Knowing how sorority recruitment works allows you to play the game and have options during sorority recruitment.

  • Know how to keep the members interested

  • Be confident in your decisions AND have more control your experience

  • Know what the members are looking for in a new member

With CRUSH, you have 1 year of support. 

We are here for you. We are here to support you before, during, AND after sorority recruitment. When you have a question, we are here to answer it!

testimonials

“Sloan helped me a lot in building my confidence for rush! The way she walked me through how to effectively create small talk helped me really connect with the members of each sorority as I went through rush. I knew what questions to ask to open conversation, and in the end, this is what helped me find the sorority that was right for me.” — Madison

“Sloan was such a big help to my recruitment process! Whenever I needed her she was just a phone call or text away. Even when things switched I’m up on me at the last minute [moved from in-person to Zoom] she totally helped me keep my cool and have a super easy transition!!” — Dylan

“Sloan was incredibly helpful throughout the entire recruitment process! Her advice/strategies and constant support have proven to be extremely valuable, and it is clear that she truly wants what is best for each individual client!” — Hannah

“Before joining CRUSH I had no idea how to prepare for sorority rush. I didn’t know what to talk about, how to get rec letters, or how to present myself. CRUSH gave me all the tools I needed to go into recruitment fully prepared and confident.” — Sophie

“My recruitment journey was not an easy one or a normal one. I had gone through recruitment as a freshman and I did not find my home, I tried to COB and that didn't work so I began to feel hopeless. Then I found this program and Sloan and things started to look up. The experience I had in CRUSH was amazing and I finally started to feel like I had control of my recruitment experience. I felt more prepared going in, I felt like I understood the process more, and overall better mindset for the week. After going through this program I had a completely different outlook on sorority recruitment regardless of end result!” — Jessie

“I rushed as a freshman and was so disappointed when I only got invited back to one sorority at the beginning of sisterhood round. Despite this, I decided to go thru recruitment again as a sophomore and that’s when I found Getting the Bid. This course was so helpful and Sloan was so hands-on during the whole process. I would absolutely recommend this course to anyone unsure of how the rush process works, it helps you be confident when talking to sorority members so you can show them who you truly are.” — Hannah

“Sloan was amazing!! Coming into CRUSH, I knew nothing about rush or how to even get into a sorority! However, I learned so much from her from just one summer, and every single day of recruitment/rush I received encouragement from her through all the highs and lows. Honestly, I’m sad that it is over because Sloan was genuinely such an amazing person and coach throughout the entire process. If you want to get into a sorority you love, feel confident during rush (and even everyday small talk!), I definitely recommend joining!” —Emily

“Sloan is the absolute best! She brought out the best of all of us so that we can present our best selves to sororities during recruitment. We worked on mastering small talk and relating to the sorority members to have great, memorable conversations. I was invited back by all of my top sororities throughout recruitment and really believe the skills I developed from Getting the Bid led me to that. Sloan helped me present my best self to the members!” — Caroline

“Sloan helped me so so much by teaching me all the steps and “how” to become a rush crush. She answered every question I had and guided me through the virtual process this year.” — Kendall

“I cannot say enough great things about Sloan Anderson's Getting the Bid Coaching services! My daughter decided to attend a large SEC school, and, being from the Western U.S., we had little knowledge about "Southern School" recruitment. We hired Sloan, and it was some of the best money we have ever spent. Rather than feeling clueless and overwhelmed, our daughter went through rush feeling confident and prepared. Not only that - she felt like she truly had an ally in Sloan, a friend to reach out to for advice, and a cheerleader when things didn't go as planned. We felt like Sloan went over and above the call of duty in being there for our daughter, always being willing to take a call or text and helping guide decision making throughout the process. In the end, our daughter accepted a bid from a great house that we know she'll love! If you're on the fence about hiring Sloan, don't be! We would highly recommend her to anyone whose daughter is considering sorority recruitment.” — Mom of a student at an SEC college

“This program helped me feel more prepared. I was so nervous going in because I felt like I didn’t know anything. It really helped me show the sororities what I was thinking and why I wanted to be in AXID [Alpha Xi Delta]!” — Hana

“Without the help of Getting the Bid I wouldn’t be in my sorority!! I joined AOII [Alpha Omicron Pi] which was my dream sorority!” — Makaily

 “I wouldn’t have been able to make it through the recruitment process without Sloan and this program. Sloan offered great support in keeping positivity through the experience and provided insight on the recruitment process that made me feel much more prepared. The program helped me become confident in my conversational skills and expand on my answers during recruitment. I cannot thank Sloan enough for getting me a bid to the sorority of my dreams!” — Maya

“This program is fantastic!! Sloan was there for me every step of the way before, during, and after recruitment! She helped me gain so much confidence in myself and with talking to new people. I can’t recommend this program enough!!” -Kylie 

“Sloan truly is the absolute best!! I felt so prepared for each conversation and felt like I could fully be myself!! All of the practice helped so much and she was always a call away. I felt like I was truly able to find my home and I am so grateful for that:) I could not recommend her enough!! After walking out of each house, I felt like I knew if it was the place for me and I felt confident throughout the entire process because of the preparation. If you are nervous about rush or don't know where to start, I cannot recommend this program enough!!” -Taylor

“Going through sorority recruitment as a sophomore, I was terrified of making the same mistakes from freshman year. I had just transferred to a large SEC school and had no idea what to expect. Sloan’s advice and strategies allowed me to stand out to sororities even before the first day of recruitment! I could tell that members knew my name, and I felt comfortable and confident during the conversations because I knew exactly what they would be asking me! I was also in control of my experience because I knew how to show every sorority that I was interested! After bid day, the President of my sorority came up to me and said that she had to meet me! She had heard about me from multiple members before I ever stepped in the house, and I had an entire group rooting for me throughout recruitment! I am so glad to have found genuine friendships through my sorority, and I couldn’t have done it without Sloan!!” -Elle

 
 
 
 
 
 

MOST OF THE SORORITIES ON YOUR CAMPUS ARE GREAT, BUT NOT EVERY SORORITY IS THE RIGHT FIT FOR YOU

A misconception is that joining a sorority is like joining a club. 

Sororities are more than just a club. They give women a home, community, inspiration, accountability, forever friends, and a sense of belonging. Sororities create your college experience.

Soon after joining my sorority, I saw how my life was about to change. I had a community of over 200 women who were there to support me in my transition as a first-year college student. I had sisters to go to the dining halls with and try all of the different foods. I had sisters to text when I needed to spend twelve hours in the library studying for a calculus test. I had women to get ready with before events and the UGA football games. I had a way to volunteer with the local community. I was inspired by the upperclassmen getting internships, graduating with jobs at KPMG, or moving to New York City to accomplish their dreams. I had a community to support me. I had a sense of belonging on a campus of 30,000 students. 

Joining a sorority can be an experience that changes your life. 

To have an experience that changes your life, you need to get a bid to the sorority that aligns with your values, beliefs, and experience you want for college. For example, if one of your goals is to get good grades or go to graduate school, you want to join a sorority that has a high chapter GPA. You want to surround yourself with women who push you academically. Women who inspire you to get an internship. Women who inspire you to go into research. If one of your goals for college is to make lifelong friends, you need to find the sororities that have the best retention rates. The sororities that have the most members stay year after year. 

Every sorority has a different dynamic and different members. Many of the sororities on your campus are great, but not every sorority is the right fit for you. To get a bid to your dream sorority, you need to have options at each round. To have options, you want to use a plan. This step-by-step plan helps you communicate that you are a good fit BEFORE and DURING sorority recruitment. That way, you are not picking the better of your last two options. You choose the best option from the start.

SLOAN IS YOUR GUIDE TO SORORITY RECRUITMENT.
