the rush funnel

by: truth be told

Since this board has clearly been taken over by people who are either bitter about their rush results or naive to how things really work, here is the real deal. Rush is a funnel process; mutual selection means that the most desired houses, typically Old Row + Pi Phi, ADPi and Zeta, make the heavy cuts in the beginning. These houses will release over 1000 pnms the first round and know for the most part who these people are before rush week starts. Basically, those houses tend to do the best at the end of the week and get what they are looking for, where as the others want to make quota.

Level 1:

KD- connections, family reputation, exclusivity

Kappa- connections, family reputation, party people

DDD- connections, family reputations, well-rounded and involved

XO- connections, family reputations, well-rounded, earthy

AXO- connections, attractiveness, grades, involvement

PM- connections, attractiveness, grades, involvement

AGD- connections, well-rounded, involved

Pi Phi- attractiveness, cool-factor, party people

ADPi- grades, involvement

Zeta- attractiveness, party people, would boys like you

--------------------------------------------------------- -----------------------------------------------
Level 2:

DG, DZ, AOPi, APhi- whoever is decent and still available after level 1 funnel

--------------------------------------------------------- -----------------------------------------------

Level 3:

Theta, Gamma Phi- making quota

Oh, i would change level 2 to level 3 and then put top of new row in level 2. Leave only old row in level one. It’s still the sutuation even with all the oos because they want them too.

This is all BS.

NOBODY wants this list in this order like a “funnel” that you drop down until your grabbed. That’s just nonsense.

There may be some desirability/popularity rank, but some girls like a few of each and the descriptions are dated.

Clearly an old KD alum digging back several years to find a post that has them alone at the top

Pretty good but not a straight funnel. A lot of PNMs are not interested in the super Alabama-focused houses...
