Its "possible" for almost anyone to get a bid, but I think the above posters are downplaying the reality a bit. The chances of getting a bid at IU in terms of pure statistics are among the worst in the country. There just aren't enough bids for the number of girls who want to rush, I think its around 50%. You're right, many girls go in as legacies or know people from high school. Rushing some houses just isn't worth it going up against girls who basically already have bids, unless you are very attractive. Going in I would be very realistic and honest to yourself about where you can get a bid, this probably means a mid to lower tier house and thats fine. If you really want to be part of Greek life in college, and cant stand the thought of not getting a bid, then I'll be honest and tell you that IU is a bad choice for someone in your position.
