As a parent with an outgoing biracial daughter (Thai/white) in 8th grade starting to think about what kind of college experience she wants, this video is **SO HELPFUL** and insightful. Thank you for making this.
oh my gosh i'm a neo in an asian sorority and i wish i had had this guide when i was rushing T_T it's so in depth and helpful for anyone who is thinking of joining!
20:35 I love how I watched 20min and then got my question answered in literally 4 seconds haha I always thought that if someone who wasn't asian wanted to join that members might be somewhat weirded-out or think you're obsessed with their culture or something along those lines You should make a whole video explaining more about that
I’m glad your Greek experience worked out for you for the best. I appreciate your video and your disclaimer regarding PHC (NPC ) and the other councils and your knowledge regarding them. I hope you stay involved with your organization on a national and local level. As you stated of course, it’s a lifetime organization and once you join it’s for the rest of your life. 👍🏾
NO STOPPPP LMAOO😭The other day I was looking at prospective uni students' introductions in a facebook group and one girl had tailgating as a hobby, and i was just thinking why someone would enjoy driving closely with other cars, and then i see 10:45 and learn that there's ANOTHER MEANING HAHHAHA omg
Thank you, your videos are really informative. I just applied to UIUC as a transfer sophomore student, currently waiting for the hear back. I live near Chicago as well! I hope one day I can see you around Chicago once I graduate :)
This was so helpful i watched it til the end! i might rush againn i j didn't join akdphi bc i wasn't sure if sorority was right for me but it was so much fun and everyone was super sweet🥺🥺
Kelly Tang I'm more of an introvert and English isn't my first language, so i'm always worried and self conscious abt making grammar mistakes or not being able to articulate my words but i am so so glad and relived to hear that! means a lot thank uu if i do rush again i'm more than excited to meet the rest of the sisters😆
Hellooo! I'm in a different Asian org, but this is super helpful to any potential rushee! I can tell you really love your sisterhood and I love seeing that and seeing people thrive hehe! I subbed to you, hope you're doing well :)
I’m curious about where would SE Asian interests would fit in these sorority. There’s separate South Asian and (East?) Asian sororities. Honestly that’s something I noticed as well with AAA being majority East Asian. Most of my college friends were varying types of Asian (Chinese, Indian, Laos, Taiwan, Bangladesh) so it felt like there was never a social group that equally welcomed us all or celebrated our diverse Asian heritage.
I’m so glad I found this video! aKDphi is the sorority I’m drawn to the most here and I’m so excited for it. I want to ask how your parents reacted to you becoming a sxster. Being Asian, my parents are so involved with my life and I know they mean well, but they have such outdated views on what Greek life is like and they’re really trying to discourage me from rushing. Do you have any advice or tips?
omg yes my parents were not very happy about it aha, but it was only because they heard negative rumors about greek life. it took some time, but i explained to them that greek life /= partying and instead showed them how it led to really great leadership opportunities for me, the projects i was working on for my positions as i was publicity chair at the time, introduced them to some of my new best friends & sisters and they're now super supportive of it :)
it doesn’t mean any one thing - each case is different bc there are lots of possible reasons someone could not receive a bid but it shouldn’t deter you from trying again next semester!
@@kellyktang so i rushed last spring and i didn't get a bid sadly. I want to rush again but I'm super nervous that i may get rejected again. What can i do to improve my chances?? My school rush last for a week(uva)

i’m white as f*ck and have no interest in greek life but will i still watch to the end??? yes❤️
HAHA you’re literally my biggest fan 🤧🤍
i hope you can make more videos about akdphi!!
what kind of videos would you wanna see??
@@kellyktang fun vlogs, what you wish you knew, stories (fun or dramatic!), what’s the new member intake process like, etc,
Can masters students get into sororities and fraternities at uiuc?
LnF from UTA akdphi💜
💓💓
After an interview how long till u know if u got a bid or not? And if not, do they send an email telling u so?
it definitely just depends on how the sorority likes to do it! I'd say give it a week or two before you get a response
I'm applying to UIUC this upcoming year! Any advice for applying??
Also how's the theatre programs there?? I'm applying for theatre and buisness and don't hear much about the the theatre programs!!
What does mean when you said "we just weren't ready for you yet"
it doesn’t mean any one thing - each case is different bc there are lots of possible reasons someone could not receive a bid but it shouldn’t deter you from trying again next semester!
@@kellyktang so i rushed last spring and i didn't get a bid sadly. I want to rush again but I'm super nervous that i may get rejected again. What can i do to improve my chances?? My school rush last for a week(uva)
😊💗💗💗
what are your thoughts on rushing last semester in college? would it be too late?
probably :( you can’t be active until you finish the intake process your first semester so you’ll never get to experience activehood!
@@kellyktang would it be worth a shot tho? although I may not get the full experience. like say I got a bid my last semester. would I give it a shot?
if you do get a bid def go for it!
