Especially at a campus like Ole Miss, many of those women withdrew from recruitment because they didn't get the "Southern Pedigree" chapter. From my understanding, even though Ole Miss has a brutally competitive recruitment, a shockingly high number of freshmen PNMs receive bids (pending they consider all chapters). Why it is considered competitive is that there are chapters that will have lots of legacies and girls on their "watch list" from hometowns, and drop the rest after Day #1, but there are still other chapters that will consider everybody. And the beautiful thing about Ole Miss is that all nine chapters are large, strong and will offer a full social calendar, so there is really no reason to "not consider" a chapter...they are all excellent, flagship chapters of their respective GLOs. Your daughter should probably be fine, just make sure she gets her recs and is well versed in campus culture and the culture of recruitment.
