That is good and bad, but if you want to be in a sorority at UT, you can be in one. . . .

As ADPiZXalum said, Texas - Austin DOES have guaranteed placement for women who make it through Preference and maximize their options. The UT Panhellenic says:
What is Guaranteed Placement? Choosing the maximum amount of chapters at each convocation is strongly encouraged and required for you to be eligible for guaranteed placement. If this is followed through the preference event, those potential new members who have chosen the maximum amount of chapters throughout recruitment and who choose all of their options on their preference cards will receive a bid from one of the chapters listed on their preference card. That DOES NOT mean that they will automatically receive their first choice, but it does mean that they will be placed with one of their choices. Reminder: You MUST attend ALL Recruitment events of you will be WITHDRAWN from recruitment.

Obviously, if a woman drops out, or is cut by all of the NPC sororities, guaranteed placement doesn't apply.
