As Titchou said, there are a bunch of Bama threads here that should provide you with a lot of info. The date for Panhellenic Preview Weekend was just announced. It will be the weekend of March 27th. The
UA Greek Life webpage will have a registration link put up when it is closer to the date. There is also a ton of general Recruitment info there if you click on the various links.
As a general statement, a 3.8/4.0 cummulative HS GPA should be safe from GPA cuts regardless of ACT/SAT scores. Chapters realize that not everyone tests well.
