This is my first post....I am anxiously awaiting to hear about the first day of cuts! I'm nervous but my daughter isn't. I'm really not giving her the scoop on how difficult it may be so that she stays relaxed and true to herself!

That's great! Cuts have to be made. She'll find a home. I'm excited for her. Now if we can hear good news from Freshmandad.

Good for her! Good for you! You can breathe a little easier until next round.

Good luck Bama moms and dads! My daughter always wanted to go to Bama, I love the houses there. Such a beautiful campus.

Thanks WE07 - she is maximizing her options!

Are sophomores at UA guaranteed?

Bama Rush PNM's have an opportunity after formal rush, remember Alpha Phi after Formal and it is adventageous for them NOT to have an all freshman class

According to the Alabama Recruitment guide there is NO guarantee of receiving a bid. However, Alabama has traditionally had very high placement rates for those who go all the way through.

I stand corrected..my daughter was cut by 4 but still has 10. I just want to say Good luck to all War Eagle moms too! My son goes to Auburn (whose girlfriend is on the other side of rush this week) and daughter going to BAMA so we are definitely a house divided!

Yes. But the girls usually spend the night at the house, so don't count on doing a lot with the daughter that day.
And if she doesn't get a bid...go. I should have been there after my daughter got her call.

I don't know if they are officially invited but I remember back when my daughter was thinking about going to UA, I read on a UA parents forum that the moms always go down for bid day and they were telling the different places around Tuscaloosa where you can buy things with their new letters on them.
