BE A PART OF OUR SISTERHOOD!
High Riders has an open rush period at the beginning of every fall and spring semester. Specific dates will be posted around the time of current rush.
Even though we have a rush process, we are a non-greek organization! Our process is laid back and meant to be a time for you to learn about High Riders and meet active members. We are so excited to meet all potential new members!
