how hard is it for a northerner to rush at ut aust

by: northerngal

For a pretty, wealthy northern girl, how hard is it to get into a top tier sorority as a sophomore? I have a 3.8 GPA, and letters to all of the sororities (though, I'm not sure how strong some of them will be, since I do not know most of the ladies who wrote them for me).

Do I have a chance or should I go to another school with a less rec-oriented rush process?

Thanks in advance!

Isn't it a little late to switch schools? Rush is next week.

another GreekRank-post? What kind of person would switch schools because they don't have a very good chance for a "top-tier" sorority?

It has to be phony. What student who has the grades and exam scores for UT is really going to switch universities a week before school starts for Greek life? Ridiculous.

Yes it is ridiculous, but my Freshman year at UT 3 girls moved out of Hardin House because they got cut by the top sororities, 2 went to Baylor, 1 went to The U of Arkansas. Cray cray!

I have seen some scary stuff on here, but that is the worst. Who does that? Someone whose mother is more disappointed than they are and allows them to do it, that's who. It is a shame their parents didn't tell them to stick it out and be happy where you land. The Big 6 are great, but so are the others. It is hardly social suicide if you end up AX0/DG/Phi as opposed to PKT. Plenty of fun and parties to go around for everyone.

1. This sounds like someone is trolling. And 2.It's not a rec-oriented rush process, it's a knowing people oriented rush process. Have you made friends in the houses who can pull for you? That's important. If you've come to UT from the "north" or especially the east coast, you're probably pretty wealthy. Almost always the case. Here's the problem. None of that counts if you don't have connections in the state of TEXAS.

So if you're from the north and don't know anyone at UT are you basically screwed? Is there any house that tends to take northerners?

100% you're screwed. I was in the SAME position (Sophmore, 3.9 GPA, wealthy/pretty northerner).. Didn't know 1 person in Texas and I got cut from the top 6 right away.. Not sure what the sophmore quota situation currently is but a few years ago houses took 1 or 2 the most. I wouldn't count on getting a bid from the top 6 let alone DG, AXO or ADPi.. The lower tier houses are more open to taking out of state girls but its like a 10% chance. If you're smart you should take my advice and go to a school in the north.. You'll have a better college experience with normal, educated people.. Not a bunch of 17 year olds who plan on getting a "MRS" degree and plan their lives around OU weekend and what frat they'll choose to devirginize themselves to - Just run. Far away.
