I am a senior in high school from Fort Worth, Texas and I want to participate in rush at Bama next year. I have heard that being in a frat at Bama is all about knowing people and since I'm from so far away, I don't really have connections. I have also heard that informal summer recruitment is important, but Alabama is so far away that it would be hard for me to really participate in that. If all I can do is formal rush in the fall, and go into it knowing no one, do I have a chance of getting a bid? If not, is there anything else I can do to get connected or make up for missing most of the summer informal rush. I tried searching for answers to these questions but didn't really see anything so any help would be good.
