At many Southern and Midwestern schools, there aren't many minority NPC Greeks for two big reasons: there aren't many in those areas of the country, and not many minorities that do live in those areas go through NPC recruitment. Low numbers of minority members doesn't mean that the chapters don't accept minority members.

If you are at a school in the South or Midwest, I would strongly suggest getting recs. For example, if you rushed at an SEC school without recs and were unsuccessful, it would most likely be because you didn't make yourself known (by having recs), not because they don't want minority members in their chapters. If you don't have personal connections, there are Alumnae Panhellenics where you can go for recs.

I can say that with most chapters at my school, being a minority is a positive, all else constant. We want our chapters to be diverse.
