Question Minority rushing for UPC sorority?

Hi, so I was trying to console my friend who starting freaking out on me. She called me last night freaking out saying that she was at an automatic disadvantage. I was trying to tell her it's ok, but I really didn't know any real facts, so I thought I would come to you guys for some answers. I made an account so I could get some real facts from real alums and ladies about to rush. We're both going to the University of Texas-- a very competitive greek school. She said that because she was a minority she felt wouldn't get a bid. I don't know why she would say that. She's a beautiful person, inside and out (cliché, yes I know), but we both know that she doesn't have connections with the girls in the sororities. She got all her recs and letters of support for the sororities, but she still says she's at an disadvantage. She's all ready for recruitment. After all she's been talking about it for weeks now and giving it her all in order to prepare herself. I wanted to get some input, so I could make her feel better or so I could tell her to do some mental preparation for what's ahead of her. So ladies, could you please help me? Is she at an disadvantage rushing for the "caucasian" sororities? I know that everyone is welcome to join, but in reality is it? And if she has all her recs, but doesn't know any girls in the sororities at UT, what are her chances of getting a bid? Any input will be greatly appreciated. I want to help my best friend out as much as possible, and because I am not rushing, I do not know much. Honest answers are greatly appreciated!

P.S. UPC is the school's panhellenic organization. Sorry for the confusion. Oh, and I've heard UT "dirty" rushes. So if she did not get contacted during the summer, is that a bad sign for her?
