by: incoming freshiehow big of a role does money play in getting into a top tier sorority/do they recruit a lot based on wealth? like how many middle class girls are actually in the top tier houses? just wondering if i'd feel rly out of place at all if i were in a top tier if i came from a middle class family

There are a handful of airheads with multi-millionaire parents but most are just normal $450K house in Brighton, Northville, Rochester girls. Like dad is an engineering manager at Ford or maybe a doctor at Beaumont, mom is a teacher or homemaker.
Actual rich kids from my high school either got into UofM or dipped out of state. Coming here was like a middle class, low-key slacker move. If you were rich wouldn't you rather go to like Miami-OH, Miami-FL, Indiana, NYU, Columbia-Chicago, Loyola-Chicago, or Pepperdine? No way I'd stay in-state if my parents were loaded.

Sororities do not have the time or interest in producing information pages listing how much their members parents earn. Similarly, pnms do not commonly receive a financial once-over by a gang of greek women at each home during recruitment.
Friendship is based on so much more than guys named Benjamin and Ulysses. If you desire to choose lifelong companions based on non-financial matters, I hope you find your top-tier sorority that feels equally about the situation.

If you use the MSU directory and plug home addresses into Zillow most of the girls live in $180K or $280K houses. For everyone 1 in an expensive house you'll have like 12 that are middle class af. Broke girls trying reeeeally hard to curate a rich Bloomfield girl image

The phis kappas and achios I knew from high school were from low-key poor families. They came here and tried to act all brand new. Their families are struggling to even afford MSU tuition. Using student loans or credit card to front in a Canada Goose. It's all so sad

For you "in state" kids, take it from someone that is not from Michigan, you look really ignorant and very small town when you think that DePaul, Loyola, Columbia, and St Mary's are actually better than MSU. Really? For someone from Illinois, those are back-up schools! And really, no one goes to Columbia unless you can't get in elsewhere. The posts bashing MSU definitely sound like kids who might be at schools like, uhm, Western Michigan or other no name schools. Keep posting though because you just confirm what a small town Detroit actually is. Peace, love and Go Green!

Most of the rich kids I know went out of state or daddy had connections to get them into UofM. State is for upper middle class and middle class kids too scared to leave their high school bubble.
