I am a non-southerner too and i heard the same thing.

The best, most qualified girls will be taken as always. Don't believe any of the gossip you're bound to hear

Most girls will be taken no matter where they are from as long as they are qualified

Watch out for the southern charm
You might think they like you, but most of them are so obsessed with each other they never live outside of their small town.

Go for a house with lots of different kind of girls they tend to judge less. After all you want friends for life.

You're kidding.
60% from out of state. Almost no group can avoid taking non-Southerners!
But listen....even among the OOS, most are from Southern states. But there are PLENTY of Cali girls who pledged last year...plenty from Illinois...from New York...even New Jersey!
Be nice...don't make fun of the South (you wouldn't want somebody making fun of your home, would you?), have good grades...you'll do fine!

Like I said, I love the south, which is why i choose Bama! We have family in alabama and South Carolina (kiawah island)! Can't wait for the fall!

It's SO EASSSSSSSSSSSSSSY to make fun of the south!

More than 50 percent of my sorority is Yankees. Everyone here knows that we are a very inclusive school.

The old row houses will be more difficult to break into and if you do, you're likely to be more lonely because you will not fit in, no matter how much you try.

I'd go for a new row house with a lot of out of state girls. That way you won't be in a nest of girls who's relationships go back 150 years.

I am a non southern OOS active. I preffed 2 old row and 1 new row. For me I decided new row would be better because during the pref stories, I saw all the connections between all the girls who knew each other or their families. I realized that new row was a better fit. I wish I had given more new row houses a chance rather than get caught up in being invited back to all the old row houses. Best decision for me. But all houses have non southerners.
