soccerchick - you seem to be relying heavily on either Alabama Action or Recruitment to make your friends for you. Trust me - this will not make or break you socially in college. Of course everyone wants to make friends going into college, but most of them don't make those friends the week before freshman year starts. Regardless of whether or not you go to AA, or you receive a bid to a sorority, you will meet A LOT of people in just the first few weeks of school - in classes, in the dorm, etc. Keep in mind that every other freshman on campus is new, just like you are.. and just like you, they are looking to meet new people and make friends.

All I'm saying is, don't make this decision because you think that if you don't participate in AA, and don't receive a bid, that you'll also go without any friends to start college.
