While it's definitely great to be on a chapter's radar before recruitment (especially helpful when it comes to matching you up with actives), being a "household name" if you will also comes with some risks. A lot can change before the final bid lists are made: girls can not make the GPA cut off, a PNM might get super drunk at a party before recruitment starts next semester and make a fool of herself, or the conversations might just not flow once a PNM walks into recruitment. If a chapter knows who you are for a good reason, like you're in someone's class or in the same student org, that's great, but absolutely nothing is guaranteed until you have a bid in your hands. Besides, you might know a bunch of girls in one chapter and realize once recruitment starts that you really click with another house! Most actives have friends in multiple chapters, so even if you do know some girls, it's not what's going to make or break your recruitment.
