I came to Alabama from SoCal as well. I, however, had a 3.8 GPA. I had a decent rush, but still found that being from out of state, not many sororities will notice you. Let me put it this way, Alabama has the most competitive greek life system in the entire country. Your daughters success in rush will depend on a number of things: 1. Your Zipcode---Birmingham girls have the best advantage 2. Legacies---Does your family have any legacies? 3. Money---How much money does your family have? (yes sororities DO look into this) 3. GPA---The cutoff is always at least a 3.0 during rush....but GPA is overall a VERY important part of rush 4. Looks---Let's be honest...beauty can certainly get you VERY far in rush 5. Extracurriculars---What was your daughter involved in in high school? 6. Letters of Recommendation 7. Charisma---How well does your daughter carry herself and how well is she able to hold conversation?
