OP, we know that not knowing how recruitment is going to work or turn out can be stressful, but as others have said, there is nothing you can do about being OOS or not being a legacy, so don't worry about it. I know for a fact that OOS girls get bids at Alabama; there are girls from our area who belong to different sororities there. Please take the advice of others to go in with an open mind and try not to worry about the out of state issue. Just get your recommendations, have fun and good luck!
