Do I have a chance

by:    

I'm a Texas girl, not the best high school resume (I had to take summer school most years), I can decently hold a conversation, I have no connections but I know some of the do's and donts of rush. I really want a top house but idk if i can get one as an out of state girl.

IDK why people keep asking about top house. No, you are not getting what you THINK is a top house without connections, because that is all that top house means here. Not getting a top house here is in no way a failure and no one will look down on you, it just means you are not from the hometown of members, or didn't go to the same high school, and neither did your mom or sister. It has nothing to do with the quality of membership or the perception of them on campus (some of what people really think about them might shock you). Will you get a great house - YES!

Also see Variable Quota.

I’m curious: Why did you choose UA? With all due respect, most people with subpar high school grades/resumes don’t make academics a priority in choosing a college. I would think there are plenty of schools in Texas where you could have fun, meet guys, etc without all the hassle of going out-of-state for college.

At any rate, and to be blunt, those who didn’t excel in high school for whatever reason generally don’t magically find their academic bearings in college, where there is more individual responsibility for time management, studying, etc and far more distractions. Best of luck, though.

You seem super fun. I bet you get invited to all the Aphi single gal wine nights while everyone else is at the bars.

What is wrong with u? U know that ppl learn differently and some require more time/instruction than others. It’s just how they learn, it’s not their fault. U just seem rude and judgmental.

Um, you do know that Alabama has an almost 80% acceptance rate, right?

I came from TX last year, didn’t know anyone, had a great rush and landed in a house that people on this site claim is a top house. I had no idea what was top at the time, but I feel like my house is the right fit for me. Trust the process. UA sororities seem to like TX girls, but your grades may be a problem. GPA is used for the first round cuts.

Same!! I came from tx not knowing anyone and went old row to a house i love. But honestly, i think my grades and resume really helped me, and i don't think i would've been in their radar if i had bad grades and a bad resume. Good luck to the OP!
