sorority chances for out of state
by: csrMy friend's daughter will be rushing next Fall. She is from TX, went to private school, very smart 3.9 GPA, very pretty, cheerleader her junior year, took AP classes. However, really has no contacts, but will have rec letters. What are her chances during rush? She's kind of hooked on one sorority b.c she has heard they don't party too much. She isn't into the crazy party scene. I know you will find all kinds in all sororities so I have encouraged her to be open minded. Thanks!

Honestly just go into recruitment with an open mind and an open heart. Tell her to be herself and 100% trust the process. I came into recruitment 2 years ago not knowing a single thing except what i had read on this sight...my “dream” house cut me after round 2 and i was devastated but in the end it lead me to where i was meant to be. I can’t wait to hear how her recruitment goes!

She will find her home! There is not ONE house that is one type! EVERY house and I repeat every house has ALL types of girls! The Greek System at OU is strong and amazing ! We all support each other honestly and the crazy stuff you read on here is generally alums that have daughters here at OU..tell her to be herself and TRUST the PROCESS!!!

She’s needs to make contacts now. Hit up your entire circle of friends. This is NOT the time to be shy about asking for introductions. Get on Instagram if you have to and look for people you might know. Rush was brutal this year for a lot of Texas girls and when the top houses ( who have fewer party girls and more grades focused girls) start cutting they cut people they aren’t sure will come back for later parties. If you don’t know people they don’t know your daughter will come back.
FWIW IMO ChiO, TriDelt, and Theta have the lowest percentage of partiers currently but every pledge class changes the house. But these are also the top 3 (or 3 of 5) so they are going to cut people they don’t know.

The best thing for you to do is help your daughter is to discourage her from going in with preconceived notions. And definitely don’t have her heart set on a single sorority. Otherwise she will end up freaking out by round 2. All of the groups are strong. Even the groups with a heavy party rep have a studious group within. Encourage her to find the good in every group that invites her into their home. And keep her off this site.

For sure tell her to stay off this site. She will be great and shouldn’t worry. If you really want to help her try to find some hometown girls and make some introductions this year. But there are girls from all over the country in my house.
