You might have an uphill battle because you are unknown (ie you don't have guys already pulling for you), not because you are from Cincinnati. I'll let some of the Southern guys on this board give better tips on how to make yourself known in a positive way.

If all else fails, you could order some Graeter's to be shipped to your top choice. (Kidding!)
Thanks for the info. Your right about how Cincinnati is definitely Midwestern and that the places that are more familiar will understand how it's a lot more different then places like Jersey or Connecticut, but when I visited the campuses most people would call me northern regardless just for the fact im not from a common location.
Also I forgot to say something in my main post.. I actually already found a roommate with a guy from Alabama and he knows a lot guys down on the campus and he said that when we visit he'll get me introduced early to them so I could get to know guys earlier and stuff around spring/early summer. I think overall the "unknown" label is probably better though than people who go into rush with bad reps already.

about the graeters thing though I think that actually would be a really good idea
seriously.. one bite and it's over.
