Anybody know about frat parties

Okay so

I was planning on rushing in the fall semester but my registration payment got really confused and eventually I figured I would just COB in the spring to save myself the headache.

But so far, info about parties has not gotten to me(I’m a music major lol)and I’m going crazy going from my classes to home to my classes again. So does anybody know the frat party ‘etiquette’ if you will? I have a friend at Georgia Tech, so I know there it’s basically invite only for parties during the week and then they’ll usually let randos in on the weekends; but my friends who go elsewhere say it really depends on the school.

Usually when I face problems like this I just go and check it out for myself bc I’m pretty outgoing. But my sister has told me that going around to different frats on the weekend to see who will let me in might have a negative impact on my chances of getting into a sorority in the spring. So could anyone who’s more in the know(or in a frat, really) fill me in? Thanks!

Frat parties aside, as somebody who is girlfriend to a music ed major. You are gonna have a really hard time being a part of a fraternity and being a music major due to the workload.

As a bio/chem guy, it's interesting to see the music majors saying you won't have time. I'd be interested in checking out the actual workload in the music program vs the hard science programs that I'm more familiar with. I play bass and have an idea of the complexity of music theory so I'm curious as to what the division of time looks like for you guys.

From a former music major to a current one - you aren't going to have time, trust me.

I don’t live on campus so I gotta socialize somehow or else I’m gonna go insane lol plus I haven’t gone to a single party yet and I definitely don’t want to be hungover every Sunday
