You’re Lexington bound and Wildcat ready—Go Big Blue!
Get ready, because once you step onto University of Kentucky, everything starts to feel like part of something bigger. The Wildcat statue, Memorial Coliseum, and all the places in between won’t just be stops on campus—they’ll quickly become part of your everyday routine.
Think game days where the entire city turns blue, “Go Cats!” echoing from every direction like it’s second nature, and a campus energy that makes even ordinary moments feel exciting.
But before all of that? You’re about to Find Your Letters through sorority recruitment—and trust us, this is where the friendships, the traditions, and the unforgettable chaos all begin.

FyL FYI: What to know about UK recruitment
· The doors might not open until August, but sorority recruitment is already happening! It’s important to get on chapters’ radars as soon as you commit to UK. Make connections, visit campus if you can, and find ways to stand out.
· While University of Kentucky does not place a major emphasis on letters of recommendation, it is still highly encouraged to submit at least one letter to each sorority. This helps members get to know you ahead of recruitment and gives additional context about who you are before in-person rounds begin.
· PNM videos are submitted in advance, and it’s so important to knock yours out of the park. This is your time to shine—stand out and leave them wanting to get to know you more.
How FyL Can Help
· Conversation support (what chapters suggest you talk about vs. the real questions you should be asking) – check!
· Recommendation & resume guidance (what chapters are looking for, what actually helps you stand out, and where rec writers typically come from) – check!
· Understanding the process (how cuts are made, when to expect major drops, and what Panhellenic shares vs. what you really need to know) – check!
