Grades?Legacies? Bids.

by:    

I’m a legacy of two big top houses I know that doesn’t guarantee me a bid but people say they already have their list made before going in. I’m coming from out of state and don’t know anyone at Arkansas but have many Greek connections elsewhere. Does this make a difference? Also what would y’all consider a grade risk? If I have a 3.5 would I get cut or get a good bid?

Dunno which houses you're a legacy to, but saw this on another post and I hope that helps:

Kappa- mostly arkansas

Zeta- from dallas/ kansas city

Pi phi- from kc, tx, and ark

Chi o- Most girls are from dallas and arkansas

Being a legacy as of current only gives you a leg up at Chi O. From my understanding PiPhi and Zeta have revised their legacy policies. Idk about Kappa.

If it's Tridelt (no one seems to agree if they're top or not): they're from lots of places and also revised their legacy policy too.

A 3.5 GPA is usually the cut off for most chapters, if you have a 3.6 or higher, you're set - assuming you have the resume/connections to back it.

Connections matter more than ANYTHING for a top house. Chi o/kappa. Zeta/pi phi

Legacies with a mom that graduated from UARK may help for chi o. Other than that your legacy status won’t matter much. Grades will also be very important for pi phi and being cute with an outgoing personality during recruitment will help for zeta. Kappa for real if you don’t know anyone you aren’t on their list.

It might get you to the second round, but so many girls are legacies and now most of the chapter’s don’t have to give preferential treatment anymore that it probably won’t help too much. You NEED to have friends in the top houses to get into them here

Totally agree! I had a very close connection so knew a top house was an option. My roommate did get zeta without a connection and loves it. So that may be the easiest top house to get without a connection?? She is cute and outgoing so maybe she really just connected with someone

I would say connections can actually HURT you for zeta. Regardless of how nice people always say they are I had high school friends and was cut by them and know other girls who were cut by their so called connections as well.

There are a few girls that can get a top house with no connections

Our chapter had more legacies going through than we had bids to give out on bid day last year. This needed to happen

That goes for any house not just zeta. If you have connections from high school and y’all weren’t friends good luck!
