It won't be good if you go into rush and the actives can automatically tell that you're self conscious. You need to be confident about yourself! There are still 3 months till rush, eat healthier and exercise. You won't have a perfect body by then, but you could maybe lose a few pounds and feel a little better about yourself by the time rush comes. You won't be the only overweight one, I promise. And there are lots of girls from the north in every house. The no connections part could be harmful, but I doubt you'll get dropped from rush all together. Just keep a really open mind and be happy with a bottom tier house if that's what it comes to! They're all great so you should be happy in any of them anyway. But really, if you were involved and have great recs and grades, then you shouldn't have a problem! If those things are bad too, then you might have something to worry about. Just go through recruitment and see what happens. There's always Alpha Phi! If formal recruitment doesn't go so well, then try to be on of the colonizing women of Alpha Phi! Good luck to you!

You won't be dropped from any houses because you are overweight. You will be dropped from several houses because you are from the north. You will be dropped from even more houses because you lack connections.

The good news is that there are still many houses to chose from that won't care about any of the things you just mentioned.

Just keep your options open and don't get discouraged.

It's funny, because at least half the girls in all of our houses are from out of state. No there aren't as many northerners as there are out of state girls from other states or cali, but seriously? No one will look at a great PNM and drop her solely because of the state she lives in!!!!!! The only reason you would get dropped because you're from the north is because you have a lack of connections due to your location.

Who gets dropped by a house for being a northerner? That sounds like an excuse made up by a girl who got cut from her favorite houses during rush. "Oh, it's because I'm from the north." Seriously?

Connections is the biggest factor. Rush is getting more competitive now and there's 1,800 girls coming this fall. AOPi and Pi Phi are now more picky and the girls they got for their PC 14' had connections.
There is still a chance for you to make connections!! You have until September 27th to make as many friends as possible and to be as nice as possible to actives. Who knows? You might end up being someone's rush crush.
Without connections you are looking at Theta, ADPi, or Alpha Phi. It's NOT a bad thing!! Theta is a great house with nice girls, ADPi will have a huge house, and being a founding member of Alpha Phi will give you a rare and fun experience!

Why are you bumping this? The question has already been answered multiple times! If you're so insecure that you need even more people answering the same question with the same answer, then you really need to get some help! I am not trying to be rude, but your question has already been answered. Either you're trying to get someone to say something bad about overweight girls to start drama or you're just looking for someone to tell you the answer you want to hear.
