Question about rush & question about sorority at Ole

by: Ladybug   

Hi. Honest answers please.I have a niece who will a freshman at Ole Miss this fall. She has an excellent GPA, excellent reputation,and involved in many activities at her high school. Do most girls going through rush that have great GPA, great reputations, and are involved in many different activities receive a bid to join one of the sororities at the end of recruitment? I hope my niece will be invited to join one of the sororities at the end of rush week this August. She is not a legacy of any sorority. I went to another university and was not part of Greek life so no idea if at the end some of the girls are not invited to join any of the sororities. Also is there a tier. I keep seeing top, mid, and low tier. Is this true. Is it ok to join a low tier if that is one’s only option? Or would it be better to be non Greek and not join a low tier if that is one’s only option? So will most girls receive an invitation to join a sorority at end of rush or are there many girls that are left with no invitation? And if low tier is a thing - is it better to be non Greek if a low tier is only choice? I want Greek so all of this I wonder for my niece. Thank you so much!\n\n\n\n\n

Pnm's should not pay attention to ranks and tiers. All chapters at Ole Miss are great. They are just different flavors for different girls. The terms 'low' or 'bottom' do not equate in the least to the quality of the members or the strength of the sisterhood or the social experience. Any bid at Ole Miss is an accomplishment and offers an exceptional experience.

A pnm with an excellent GPA and resume will get a bid. She might not get the sorority she was after at first, but she will get a bid. The vast majority of pnm's who don't get a bid make the intentional decision to drop out of rush. They do this because they get their heart set on a certain house or houses, and when those don't ask them back they let emotions get the better of them instead of focusing on the houses that actually want them. The sororities do the choosing and pnm's need to keep an open mind. It is far easier to get a bid as a freshman than at any other time.

A pnm will have a good rush at Ole Miss if she can resist being influenced by so-called tiers and ranks, keep an open mind to the chapters that are asking her back, and refrain from comparing her rush to any other pnm's.
