As I recall, the UofA's site does not specify a minimum GPA, but does recommend a 3.0 or better. Since there are girls with less than 3.0s (and not because they took AP classes) who are offered bids by sororities at Bama, that may be why they take a chance.
Certainly less-than-stellar grades will limit a PNM's opportunities, but perhaps there is still a
chance.
Remember that a number of chapters at Bama have chapter GPAs and NM GPAs that fall below those of undergrad women in general and also below non-greek undergrad women. Individual chapters determine their own definitions of "grade risk."
