Our rush has two rounds. The first round consists of an informational session, a meet-and-greet, and an application to get to know who you are.

Team Dynamics is our final rush event, where you’ll be assigned to a team and participate in several activities/games with our current members. We’ll then have a members only deliberations before the most exciting night of the process: bid night!
