My daughter was looking at UGA, Auburn and Alabama as well. We first visited UGA and thought “this could be it”, we both really liked the campus and the area. On a different day we toured Auburn and Alabama, Alabama was OK but after touring Auburn, that was IT, Auburn stole her heart. She loved it ! We researched a lot about each campus, especially sororities. The feeling I was getting about UGA and Alabama was that their sororities were more cut-throat and just didn’t seem like a fit. I keep reading on how you MUST wear your Lilly dresses and channel shoes to rush week or you won’t be considered. I did not see anything like that about Auburn. I kept coming across the word friendly as a description. We live in CA and recently hosted a couple of Auburn girls at our home for the BIG game. They both had friends at UGA and Alabama and confirmed that many of their friends called crying during rush week but that they did not experience that at Auburn. I’m sure they are all good colleges academically and you can’t make a bad choice. Auburn was the best choice for my daughter.
