Let’s be honest about grades because 99% of the releases after 1st round are grade cut offs. The most popular OR houses are releasing PNMs that are below a 3.8. Unless your parent is a VIP on campus or with a local alumni chapter or you have 20 Actives advocating for you, if you have a GPA below a 3.8, you are going to be released from AXO, AGD, XO, and KKG after first round and possibly DDD and PiPhi. If you have a GPA below a 3.2 your releases after 1st round will be severe. My cute, outgoing roommate last year with a 3.2 was released from all the houses except 3 after first round. She got a NR bid and is happy but she was devastated the first night! If you make the grade cut, then other factors are considered (connections, involvement, looks, etc). It’s why awkward girls with a 4.1 still get released after 1st round but they at least had the other stuff taken into account. Other Actives, correct me if I’m wrong.
