I rushed with a 2.8 and got a bid. Definitely not a bid to a house that most if any girls want as their first choice, but it was still a bid and I ended up perfectly content in my sorority.

Technically, any house will make exceptions for you if you they want you enough. But you need to have a stellar resume and be drop dead gorgeous if you want a bid to a top tier house. Unless it's APhi. Alpha Phi will take grade risks as long as you're hot and not awkward or poor.

If you're average looking, have an average resume, and have a 2.9 gpa, be prepared for cuts. You can make your experience a little easier by getting recs, but even they aren't a guarantee. Be prepared to end up in a middle tier house at best.

If I'm being completely honest, then yeah, it might be a disadvantage. Especially when the bulk majority of the girls rushing are drop dead gorgeous with perfect bods. I'm not saying that girls who aren't stick thin don't get bids. But when you're nothing special in the looks department AND you don't have great grades, you better have an AMAZING personality. But since rush is just a bunch of short conversations, sometimes even a great personality won't make you stand out.

Just understand that wherever you end up is where you're supposed to be. Trust the process. Don't stress too much now about which houses will invite you back. Just wait until August and see how things play out.

You will more than likely be dropped, many of the top tier houses such as aphi and gphi have to improve their gpa and the u of a has plenty of hot girls with good grades to fill their pcs

Dropped by top tier, sure. Bottom houses may still take her, such as tri delt and AXO.

Just go through recruitment! You haven't even met anyone yet, we can't predict your future.

We don't know you!! We don't know what you look like, what your extracurriculars are, who you know, if you have recs, etc. All those things play a factor. Asking on GR if you have a chance at "middle tier" houses just based on your gpa makes no sense.

You should go into recruitment with an open mind and willing to accept a bid from any house. With a low gpa, you are in no position to be picky.
