Problem is, “top” houses can be very insular - if you bust through the “no connections” barrier, you could find yourself in a pledge class filled with “connected” girls who know or know of each other, many of whom went to the same schools and camps, who cheered/danced/played sports with and against each other, etc - it can honestly be exactly like going to a new high school where you don’t know anyone, because for a lot of girls “top” houses are extensions of their high school networks. They’re not in it for some lofty ideal of sisterhood or to expand their horizons - their goal in recruitment is to have their existing sisterhood certified, so to speak. And the girls planning and leading all your new member stuff may have the same mentality - again, it can be very cloistered. There’s a real risk of being an outsider in your “top” house. Or it may work out great and you make lifelong friends! Just please keep an open mind, and don’t get too hung up on “top” designations. Good luck!
