You can still rush and the above advice is good. The six Old Row fraternities will be pretty much closed off though as they already handed out the majority of their bids this spring and summer. Old Row includes DKE, SAE, Phi Gam, SN, Phi Delt and KA. These fraternities are very difficult to get into if you do not have connections and recommendations from their alumni. There are a decent number of OOS boys in these houses (and all houses at UA) however Old Row hardly lets in people from up north. And KA will definitely not give a bid to anyone from up north. With that said, this means they all had connections before they started college since they are all from the same region of the country. That is why you have heard of people being able to meet others and know which house they wanted to join before starting UA. But I don't know you and your accomplishments or where you are from. For all I know you could be very accomplished and southern and an old row fraternity might give you a last bid. There are many great fraternities at UA, both Old and New Row. New Row has some really strong houses. You don't necessarily have to be in an old row house to be in a good fraternity here. Since you are just now contacting people about rush you will more than likely end up in a New Row house, but you should contact all rush chairs of all interested fraternities. Don't be intimidated and don't wait. Welcome to Alabama and RTR
