But there are girls who are also coming from across the nation and they have somehow made connections already. If you haven't already gotten all your recs to your rec writers, then do it as fast as you can. The faster you get on their radar the better. It's honestly a little late for that though, because actives from all the sororities are all over the country and all over the world at this point in the summer. Still, DON'T STRESS!!! Just get them in and make sure they have the correct info you need to have on it. While connections are the main problem for out of state girls, there are SO many other factors that play into whether you get a bid or not, such as grades, personality, recs, looks (shallow I know), how the actual week of rush goes, etc. You will be cut from most houses if you have below a 3.0. There are a few exceptions, but don't count on it. You will be cut from most houses (or every house) if you do not have at least one rec (since it is a national rule for a lot of sororities for a PNM to have a rec in order to receive a bid), or if your rec writer says that they don't want you in their sorority. Get at least 2 recs if possible. I suggest 2 recs and 2 or 3 letters if you can. If you can't, 1 or 2 recs will do. But get at least one rec. This is especially true for you out of state girls so we can really get a glimpse of you since we don't know you. Continued in next comment
