Rush

Poster Message:
I think all houses participate in formal rush even though Old Row fraternities have already given out most, if not all of , their bids. The exception to formal rush might be DKE, I am pretty sure they do not select any members from formal rush. I think there is a lot of confusion about OOS students rushing at UA. Many OOS students are in the strongest fraternities and sororities at UA. The only way OOS status will be viewed as a negative by some is if you are from outside of the south, and especially if you are from northern state. If you are from OOS, but from a southern state then you have nothing to worry about! If you are from up north some fraternities will not consider giving you a bid, but many still will. If you are from up north you can still find a great house. Old row houses rarely give bids to northerners, especially KA they will not have any pledges from up north. But as I said, you will find a good new row house, even if you are from up north. If you are from the south then you have nothing to worry about. And no, formal rush is not only OOS students, many are from Alabama. Just be confident and be yourself! Welcome to Alabama!
