I know the competitiveness of these sororities are great, as I've heard many stories from them. Which is why I wanted to ask this question.

I will be going to UT in the fall, and I am a Hispanic student, regular sized and in no way the typical thin that I constantly see overpowering the sorority websites. (I am in no way suggesting that these organizations are racist or subject to discrimination on appearance, I'm just being realistic because we all have our preferences and molds that we want to interact and be the face of our "organization). Anywho I am very academically oriented with many respected values, but I am also very social. I tend to hangout with the sperry/uggs/northface wearing girls at my school. Though money is not something that I have in abundance and none of my immediate family has ever graduated from a University let alone have ever been involved with a sorority/fraternity. So as you can see this process is very unfamiliar to me. (If by any means my description of myself was offensive to the question of my chances of offered acceptance into a university I apologize and retract my question).

If anyone took the time to read this and answer this, thanks in advance.

I didn't mean to come off ignorant, I really haven't mastered this site, and barely figured out how to actually post this. I appreciate everyone's feedback though and I guess I'll just have to go and try it out once I get there. Sorry again. No one else has to respond as i see this is probably not a good question to post here.

There must be a million threads here about recruitment at Texas here. The search function is your friend.

If finances are an issue, sorority life will most likely be a challenge for you at Texas. You can count on $10,000 to $12,000 per year for the basics when you're living in. That doesn't even include things like the wardrobe and parking.
