reputation/ tiers
by: ComonA lot of girls are worried about tiers and reputations on the sorority that they want/are probably going to go. But really who’s going to care if your in a top or middle or bottom? Your pledge class is who defines your sorority reputation now not a bunch of older girls who are barely involved anymore!! So if you fit in with the girls you see coming back to the houses today you will be fine and have a great time in the sorority don’t worry about tanks that are literally made up of where you’re from and who you know? Last time I checked being from MISSISSIPPI literally Mississippi the most shat on state and going to Jackson prep doesn’t make you cool and make someone else not

Agree so much with this. From my experience OOS girls who get a bid to a top house really just got that bid so the houses could say they took some OOS girls. They still won’t ever be able to break through the bonds the Miss girls have had their whole lives and will still be seen as an outsider in their own house.

"NEVER break through the bonds...."? I hear what you're saying but never is a pretty strong word. Does this happen? Yes. But ALWAYS? No. I'm in what's considered a top house and went to high school 12 hours away in a northerly direction. I have a wonderful friend group with many sisters from MS and other southern states. They seem to love and care for me...just as much as those they knew before from high school or wherever. I do feel that PNMs should look around the room to get a sense of who they feel most comfortable with. Go with your gut feeling. It worked for me.

a tip my RC told me: during sisterhood and ESPECIALLY preference rounds, look around not only at the actives but the other pnms in the room. these are the girls who will be in your PC. think to yourself: do i see myself spending 4 years with these girls? i did this during sisterhood and it actually really helped me make my decision!

Spot on! It is literally about who is on the inside from your high school. That does not define any girl. Trust the process and embrace differences. I would focus on sororities that focus on grades, involvement, sisterhood, and that like to recruit OOS girls. Why would anyone want to join a sorority that is just an extension of a Mississippi high school? Think about it. Tiers are not real. They only exist in the minds of insecure girls. Have a great rush!

This was me 3 years ago. I had a top tier house and a middle tier on pref day. I felt so out of place at the top tier house. Everyone was hugging each other and knew each other. They were nice to me but it just did not feel right.
At the middle tier house, they were so excited to have me. I knew I would never really fit in at the other house so I went middle tier and have had a great 3 years!
Go where you feel comfortable!
