When I was a senior in high school, all I could think about was Alabama and which sorority I was going to rush. I had a 2.8 and was honestly terrified that this was going to hold me back during recruitment or get me dropped completely. I am average in looks, I certainly do not have blonde hair or fit the 'Alabama standard' of beauty, and I'm from far out of state. After the first round, I had 6 out of 12 houses back, after philanthropy, I had a five and then four for sisterhood. I ended up pref-ing one of my top houses, and the other was one that kept asking me back, but I was not in love. My favorite house dropped me before pref, and I was so devasted that I almost dropped recruitment as a whole. Do what you think is going to make you happy. I'm not saying this is going to happen to everyone because I am sure my experience is very rare, but I would honestly just go in with an open mind. If you do not love the house, you end up in, drop, and re-rush the following year after focusing on your grades. If I could go back, I 100% would do this.
