How common is it for girls to be dropped completely during rush at UT?

Not too common. Almost everyone gets harsh cuts either after Philanthropy or Sisterhood..... usually one or the other. UT's placement rate is not very good, though - compared to other large schools.... :(

If girls would stick to it and except the lower tiers, most everyone would be placed. But that's not what happens here. Most girls want big six or the mid-three.

^^This. Of all the PNM's who don't get bids, probably 90% drop out because they don't like the houses they have left. Maybe 5-10% are released completely.

The most common thing I've seen where girls get released is when they carry all Big 6 to Philanthropy or Sisterhood rounds and then are released from all those houses the morning of Sisterhood or Pref. If you keep a good mix of "tiers" on your party lists, you're more likely to keep having options. It's too late for this year, but it's a good idea to pick 1-3 non Big 6 houses that you like and keep ranking them "1" until you go into Pref round.

1300 girls going through rush, 12 sororities, 80ish person pledge classes... About 300-350 girls will have to drop or get dropped

PNM, that is NOT true and NOT the way quota works. Quota is the number of PNM's with pref invitations divided by 12 sororities. The number of women being cut by each house after each round is supposed to ensure that there is a home for 98% of PNM's on Bid Day.

The issue is that 300+ PNM's drop out when they still have invitations to other houses. There is room for these women in the Greek system here but they opt out because they THINK they're too good for many of our houses.

There is a reason why amazing Greek campuses like Alabama have 93%+ of PNM's getting bids and Texas has only 75-80%.

It's really hard to get completely dropped because SDT will ALWAYS invite you back

You obviously don't go here because SDT didn't do formal. Go away old person.
