This is typically how rush works for NPC sororities at most universities. NPHC, Fraternities, and all other sororities outside of the NPC do things differently.
However, remember that if you accept a bid from an NPC sorority, you MAY NOT accept another bid for at least one calendar year. If you initiate into on NPC sorority, you may not join another NPC or NPHC sorority. So choose wisely.

A Bit More on Sorority Recruitment
Since college season is coming up for thousands of people, and a lot of ladies will rush sororities, I thought I'd get these videos up (hopefully) in time for that season.
As a little disclaimer, I am speaking primarily from the perspective of the NPC sorority organization, but I am not endorsed, paid, or in any other way affiliated to any college or sorority (other than being a member of one, of course). I also catch myself using some terminology that's not really accurate any longer, like "rush" which is now preferred to be called "recruitment," and "pledge" versus "new member," "pledge sister," or other terms. I have studied Greek organizations for years, and those are the terms that are sort of stuck in my head, and also the same terms a lot of people still use and think of outside of the Greek system. However, I mean no disrespect to any organization, this is just my way of speaking combined with my own experiences.
So take care and I hope these are helpful to someone out there. There are a lot of misconceptions about what Greek life is, how recruitment works, and what's important, so please do your homework on the different groups.

Thinking about what sororities to look into, recommendations, and other bits:
^ It's in a roller coaster background because that's how recruitment can feel, lol!
