LettersRECOMMENDATION of 09
Recommendation letters are not a requirement to participate in recruitment at SFA. Recommendation letters serve as an introduction of a potential new member to a sorority. If you choose to submit them, we ask that they be provided to the chapter(s) before Aug. 1 to ensure that they have been received prior to the start of primary recruitment.
Each sorority manages their recommendation/reference letters differently. For questions about recommendation or legacy introduction forms, we highly recommend that you review the chapter’s website or contact the national office of that particular sorority.

legacy statement A legacy is defined differently by each sorority. In the past couple of decades many sororities’ legacy policies have changed. We highly recommend that you reach out to each respective sorority’s national office to determine whether you or a loved one are defined as a legacy.
It is important to note that being a legacy does not guarantee you a bid into any of the chapters on SFA’s campus. The sorority is not obligated to offer a bid to a legacy, and a potential new member is not obligated by anyone to commit to a chapter where she is a legacy. It should be the potential new member’s choice and her choice alone as to where she feels comfortable.
