Alabama Sorority Rush Question

Hi,

I am hoping to rush at Alabama this fall. I am from the Northeast, have very good grades, activities and community service. I was unable to attend the Preview Day held in March and am new to the whole "Greek" thing since none of my family ever participated in Greek life. I was signing up for orientation this week and am left with the dates that fall during rush. I was told by the people in Orientation that I am "strongly encouraged" to attend orientation on August 14th but it appears there are activities that day that I would be unable to participate in. A friend of mine who did attend Preview Day told me I may as well forget rushing since having to attend orientation in the middle of rush will essentially kill my chances of getting a bid. Is that really true? As a Northerner, I am already at a disadvantage from what I understand. I am trying to approach this with an open mind but am I being unrealistic in hoping to get a bid if I have to skip an entire days worth of activities? Orientation people said tons of girls have to do the same but that doesn't mean it doesn't count against them right?
