snap bids
by: PNMTo whom and how are they offered? If I'm cut by all the houses I have left except for one, and the one house that keeps me I don't want to take a bid from, how do I go about getting a snap bid from someone else? Do I write down nothing when filling out my bid card? Do I withdraw from rush and hope I get a snap bid from someone? When do you find out if you've been offered one and how often are they given out?

The danger is that there are very few snap bids given out and the houses already have lists of who they will be offered to if they have to snap. They are usually legacies that were cut early or girls with best friends already in the house who's grades were acceptable but not great, etc. Snap bids do not go to normal girls who SIP on pref night. Your daughter's best bet is to list all three, hope for a bid or quota addition to the first two, and go into it with her whole heart if she gets the third. Weeping, moaning, and dropping out will be the worst things ever for her. Help her be strong instead of feeling like a victim of the system. If she is lucky enough to get a bid, she can transform the house. Next year she can be an officer, be on the recruitment team, be their outstanding pledge, ANYTHING SHE WANTS TO BE! Otherwise, she'll sit in the dorm and wish she were in a house. Any house. It happens every year. This is her best shot and the houses she has are her best hope.
Comment#12by: HELP!!!
So, I never rushed in the first place and was thinking about joining in the spring. I talked to someone in a soroity and got close to them and they put my name on a list for a snap bid. I didn't rush them or any other and was wondering how that works since the recruitment panel does not know me. There was only about 4 girls on the list and they were thinking about taking 3-4. I need help and an explanation of how likely I am to get one of those bids, since severly of the girls on the list did not rush either. Thanks!

You have to go through recruitment to get a snap bid. The time for snap bids is ON BID DAY so that time is over. You could sign up for COB. I don't know if any houses are doing COB, though. Panhellenic will know - call or e-mail them.
Yes, you could sign up for COB in the spring. Not all the sororities participate. Nobody will know who's doing it until after the semester starts. It will depend on how many in that chapter graduated, resigned, dropped out of school or transferred.

So true about snap bids. They are so rare when you look at the number of girls that would take them.
