UGA Rush Outfit Guide

University of Georgia Rush Outfit Ideas

UGA Rush outfits lean polished and put-together from the very first day, so start building your wardrobe around dresses, tops, and skirts you can mix and rewear throughout the week. As recruitment moves toward Preference and Bid Day, layer in a few more elevated pieces and simple jewelry to complete each look on your way across North Campus.

Open House Round

Open House means a full day moving between chapter houses, so choose something comfortable enough to last from morning to evening while still feeling intentional. Matching sets, eyelet pieces, and easy separates are go-to choices for the first round.

Philanthropy Round

Philanthropy Round is a step up from Open House, so reach for pieces that feel a little more refined while staying comfortable for a day of events around Athens. Smocked details and soft prints are easy ways to elevate your look.

Sisterhood Round

Sisterhood Round is the perfect time to bring in a touch more polish, whether that's a hint of red and black or classic Southern details. Statement sleeves and feminine silhouettes work beautifully for this round.

Preference Round

Preference Round is the most memorable night of UGA Rush, so choose a dress that feels timeless rather than trendy. Midi and maxi dresses with satin or delicate detailing are beautiful choices for the final round.

Bid Day

Bid Day at UGA is a celebration through and through, so keep your outfit relaxed, comfortable, and ready for a day of cheering "Go Dawgs" with your new sisters. Casual pieces and denim are the easiest choices for the day's festivities.

Best Colors for University of Georgia Rush

White, red, and soft neutrals are timeless choices for UGA recruitment. While wearing school colors isn't required, adding a touch of red throughout the week is a fun way to show your Bulldog pride around campus.

Blush pink, light blue, sage green, butter yellow, and floral prints are also popular choices and pair effortlessly with neutral accessories. Save a full red outfit or a touch of black for Bid Day, when you'll want to wear your UGA spirit head to toe.

Shoes & Accessories for UGA Rush

Complete every rush outfit with shoes and accessories that work throughout the week. Neutral sandals, heels, and classic sneakers pair effortlessly with every round, while stud earrings, a statement necklace, and a handbag add the finishing touch.
