Here is your answer: Chapters are required to make the largest releases after open house. GPA figures heavily into releases this round. Next highest number is after philanthropy. After sisterhood is the last time for releases. There are no cuts after pref, just bid matching. If you are invited to a sorority's pref you are on their bid list somewhere. This system of heaviest releases up front is best for pnm's. You need to know as soon as possible if you don't have a chance with a certain sorority so you can focus on the other sororities where you are wanted and actually have a chance. Each chapter is given a specific number they are allowed to invite back each round. These numbers are calculated by panhellenic and are based on the past years of recruitment data. The more highly desired a chapter is, the more pnm's they must release throughout the entire process. Hardly any pnm's are released from all houses; most pnm's who don't get a bid drop out of recruitment on their own. It is a real shame; there are always far too many pnm's who think they are too good to accept a bid from certain houses so they drop, but all together those pnm's would make some stellar new member classes at any house made of gorgeous fun sweet girls that would be NOTICED. What a fantastic sisterhood that would be if pnm's would just give that perspective a chance.
