Okay, I was an out of state student from Southern California also and literally had no strong connections and I am just going to tell you what I would have wanted to know. PKT are top sororities but for an out of state student, the hard truth is that those sororities will likely not be the best fit. Those three sororities all have entire friends groups that all go into one sorority and they are never looking to broaden there friend group. It won't be impossible to make friends in on of these sororities but it will definitely be harder in the beginning and there will always be "cool girls" that you are intimidated by. Rush is hard but its not insane. if you are normal and pretty enough and can keep a conversation then you will get into alpha phi and/or ACHIO most likely. Big 6 is obviously what you are aiming for and it is definitely possible. You basically have to live in Hardin if you want to be in PKT but if you have no connections with those three (literally know someone in it rn) then Callaway is also a great option. If you don't party that much than SRD is also good. Another big piece of advice is to absolutely reach out to anyone you know or heard of from your town who goes here now. When I got into UT, the girls who went to UT already absolutely knew that I got in because they started to follow me. Follow the sorority instagrams also. If anyone from UT started to follow you from your hometown then also reach out to them if they haven't already reached out to you. I PROMISE IT ISNT WIERD. literally as an out of stater myself I literally love when girls text me who are going here because I love when California girls come here because I wanna help them out!!! I know how you feel, its really overwhelming and seems crazy but reaching out to girls will help a lot.
