Connections rush

Why do you care if you don't know the girls in certain houses where already knowing each other is how they rush and you are just another outsider wannabe? Focus on houses that you have a chance at, you will have just as good a social life and better sisterhood. 'Top' is subjective and worrying about it screams of insecurity. No letters will make you better or worse than you already are. Your own looks and personality carry you anyway, if you're a 'top top' girl then you always will be, if you're not already then a sorority won't do it for you.

Every girl going through UT rush should know that connections help when so many amazing girls go through. Pull every string you can and then you should relax and be yourself. The top house has to make cuts before even meeting a lot of girls in person so you can’t take it personally if don’t have a strong connection. Also, there is not enough room for everyone at every house and pledge class sizes vary for each chapter even with a recommended quota - some need more revenue than others or are newer to campus and need more girls - be open and make friends in all the houses for a positive experience
