Is sorority rush in the south as a transfer really a disadvantage?

[creditfortwo]

I'm not sure if rush in other parts of the south is similar to the school I am attending in the fall, but my friend is planning on transferring from community college to a really southern sec school in the fall and is interested in sorority recruitment. is being a sophomore during recruitment at school like arkansas or the university of mississippi really that big of a deal?

also, how is rush at TCU? I chose TCU over SMU
