Across the country, college students are heading back to campuses to kick off a new school year.

Ahead of the fall term at the University of Alabama, there's some important business to tend to before classes begin. Bama's newest students have arrived and are ready to show how they can give it their all during Bama Rush — a tradition so fascinating it spawned an eponymous documentary that debuted on Max in May 2023.

Since taking TikTok by storm in the summer of 2021, #RushTok has faithfully tuned in every year to see potential new members (PNMs) navigate the recruitment process in hopes of pledging to the sorority of their choice.

As Bama Rush 2024 takes place from Aug. 10 to Aug 18, TikTokers fascinated with the process are keeping glued to their For You Pages — many for the fourth year in a row — to see how the tradition gone viral unfolds.

As PNMs start posting their OOTDs, sharing the contents of their rush bags and showing off the dorm room decor that serves as the backdrop for it all, favorites are already emerging. Here are some of the most promising PNMs to follow if you're ready to embrace all things RushTok.

Payton Carstensen

Payton Carstensen has been preparing for rush for months, as seen on her sweet, style-savvy TikTok. The University of Alabama nursing major has shared some cute OOTDs that are being praised for being easier to emulate than some of the other girls' looks. The nursing major has been putting in the work and has the energy to take on rush, so many following Bama Rush are excited to see her shine.

Mayce Chandler

Mayce Chandler gives Southern Barbie greatness from the moment you visit her page. Her sweet demeanor, coupled with her classic aesthetic make her an easy PNM to root for. Not to mention, her first OOTD already has over 1.5 million views.

Sydney Daniel

Sydney Daniel is making fun and spirited videos that are catching the attention of RushTok. Along with her roommate Blair Vickey, she's serving up sisterhood and style at the same time. She's gotten major props for tackling philanthropy in heels but also wearing affordable pieces that aren't out of reach to the average TikTok user.

Ellie Kerrigan

Ellie Kerrigan and her roommate Jenna have shared some cute outfits to kick off Bama Rush. Ellie's proving that all kinds of PNMs belong in the rush process and her on-trend looks have gotten attention. The freshman is pursuing a degree in clinical psychology.

Bre Morris

Another Southern belle to watch, Bre Morris kicked off convocation with Jimmy Choo sneakers. All that is to say, she's playing to win and giving it her all. The energy the nursing major brings to each of her videos makes her a social media must-watch as Bama Rush continues.

Jayla Moss

Jayla Moss has been sharing cute, often complimentary looks aside roommate Samara Reinhart. The two girls look eager to take on rush week and are bringing great energy to their posts. Jayla's jewelry game is serious, combining designer pieces with ones from her mom's own jewelry boutique. Kendra Scott even commented on one of her OOTDs rooting for her.

Jenna Smith

Jenna Smith brings an adorable and bubbly presence to her TikToks about her Bama Rush process. She's definitely a girl's girl, sharing the experience with her roommate and other close friends. With some serious U of A pride and a can-do attitude, the business major's followers are confident she'll go the distance.

Blair Vickery

Blair Vickery is really giving, from OOTDs to GRWMs. Her longer videos are keeping people who love every little detail completely engaged. Her darling dynamic with her roommate, Sydney Daniel, has people cheering them both on as they navigate their rush journey.

Kadynce Washington

Kadynce Washington is bringing that bubbly, doll-like energy. Her classic outfits do not miss, and her sense of style feels really light and natural. It's still on trend while standing out from the crowd. The Human Environmental Sciences major is certainly promising.

Emma Young

Last, but not least is Emma Young. Emma has easily emerged as one of the favorites of Bama RushTok. She has a large following that is entirely engaged with her updates, just days into the process.
