Ohioan rushing a Southern Fraternity

[PGroove11]

I'm a senior in high school from Cincinnati, Ohio who is planning to go to an SEC school and join the greek system.

First and foremost, let me assure you I'm not a stereotypical northerner I guess you could say. I don't have anything from Abercrombie or Hollister and I always call it a fraternity, not a frat. I've always acted more "southern" I guess you could say with my interests (boating, hunting, fishing, anything outdoors, etc) and I love sweet tea.
My sister goes to South Carolina if that counts for anything?

Anyways I was wondering how big of a deal is it that I'd be coming from somewhere more.. accepted?

Also, the fraternities I have always been interested in are Sigma Nu, SAE, Kappa Sigma, and FIJI.. do any of these (or any others in general) usually not give bids to someone because of location?

Any suggestions for what I should do to help my chances for bids or anything?

Thanks for your time.
