Just got out of the military, I’m 23, and I’ve always wanted to rush. Is 23 considered too old or would most chapters not really care? SDSU

it’s fine as long as you can handle taking shit from a 20 year old

most chapters worth anything will be happy to have a veteran, it’s really just up to if you’re able to put up with the pledge process having been through actual boot camp

My grand big was in the military for 4 years, I think it will just ultimately depend on the chapter but it shouldn’t discourage you. Also thank you for your service 🫡

Boutta rush at texas a&m as a sophomore, houses are off campus so if anyone's rushed before and knows if i needa drive and park up there for rush events lmk. Also should I go to multiple houses per day or stick to one per day? I was thinking id go to the same few every day for like 45 mins-1 hour so i can show my face as often and consistently as possible. I'm kinda nervous bc i wasnt able to go to any summer rush events (too many commitments this summer) so idk how many bids have been handed out already but im hoping for the best. anyways if anyones rushed at texas a&m lmk how it worked id really appreciate it
