It's not about the state or the location, it's about connections. Sorority members are naturally going to prefer girls they already know personally, or know of from close personal connections, and the pnm's want those sororities. This means girls from the same high schools and home towns will want to be together. 'In state' literally means in state. Alabama. 60% of Auburn students are in state and the sorority memberships reflect this. 'In state' chapters are highly connected and associated with certain Alabama high schools and home towns. They are already in the same social circles from school, summer camps, friends of friends, parents and family friends, etc. Different circles for different schools and areas but all in Alabama. 'Out of state' means not Alabama, but the majority of the 40% out of state students come from Georgia and Florida, and again the sorority memberships reflect this. So Georgia and Florida girls are still very well connected among the houses that aren't Alabama-centric. And again different circles, such as Atlanta private schools vs Florida areas etc, but still connected in those circles.q Then there's everyone else, and those pnm's will be evaluated without the advantage of connections: grades, resume, social media, and their video. You don't need connections to get a bid but certain houses will be harder and first round cuts are deep. The advantage for pnm's is their connections, not location, so if anyone went to Auburn from your daughter's high school, she should see if they are in a sorority and reach out.
