Alabama Rush and First Cuts: Predetermined?

[UGAalum94]

I may be wrong, but I think most chapters at UGA do accept affiliates. Certainly, there may be some that don't, but I don't think it's the majority.

As far as the HOPE scholarship in Georgia, I'd say the majority of kids in my area who get turned away from UGA or (think they would get turned away and don't even apply) stay in state and go to a less selective school in state.

But there are some who, as someone already noted, want the SEC experience who head to Auburn, Alabama, and Ole Miss (and other schools but those seems to be the ones the kids talk about the most). Some get good scholarships but others are from families who have the resources to pay and don't mind doing it.

I'd be interested in knowing how many of the OOS students are Greek. I wouldn't be at all surprised if going Greek is considered to be an even bigger part of the experience that they are looking for than the in-state kids consider it to be.
