I have recently been admitted to Ole Miss and it’s tied for my number 1! My parents don’t want me going because they say that I won’t fit in since I’m from the north. I wanted to know if this is true and also if it’s hard to get into a soriority being from the north and finding friends.

Have you visited Ole Miss or spent any time in the South? it is a different culture for sure!
Check out the Ole Miss page.
More than half of the freshman class each year comes from out of state. There are a few sororities that recruit mostly from Mississippi, and if you don’t have any connections then you are unlikely to get a bid with those groups. But there are plenty of people from out of state going through rush and getting bids.
Have you visited the campus? That’s the most important thing.
