When you're not from Jersey or New York or something, it more boils down to who you know rather than where your from to some extent. You need to make some summer rush parties, if you can.

I'm looking at more of the "old south" type of schools, not so much the SEC schools closer up where I live. your definitely right though about Vanderbilt, I visited and there were a ton of people who I met from Connecticut especially and also Massachusetts and even Ohio. I know seriously 5 girls that are going there already next year too.
I completely understand the "who you know" idea. I think that's true to any situation when your coming from somewhere outside of your normal place so that should only be expected from my view. Honestly I'd probably think less of a considered "old southern" fraternity if they didn't point that out very quickly or anything. I think I told someone else in another post also that I'm actually rooming with someone from the South who knows a fairly good amount of actives in the fraternities I'm looking into so I feel like I'll have an advantage of being able to get access to meeting with the actives then with someone who is unfamiliar with the certain houses.
Even though I'm clearly not from the Jersey/New York area.. how big of a deal is it when someone from there does rush and stuff? What typically occurs?
