In order to prepare to potentially add another sorority at Baylor, each existing sorority has to meet a certain size. This size was determined by averaging the total number of members of the eight sororities. The four chapters that fell below the average can offer COBs in order to meet that total number. These chapters are Theta, zeta, axo, and ADPi. However, these chapters are probably choosing to increase their numbers by taking larger pledge classes in formal recruitment instead of through COBs. But it's an option. Snap bids are offered by groups that don't meet the pledge class quota. So say a sorority offers 70 bids, but then only 50 girls accept the bids. If the quota was 65, then the chapter would need to offer snap bids to 15 girls. This is basically the same process as COB. But COB is a little different at Baylor because here only 4 sororities can COB to meet the total. Basically, the option exists to COB, but chapters probably will focus on formal recruitment. Snap bids are a little more likely to happen. These are for the groups where girls might choose to not take the bid. I've only heard of ADPi doing it recently. I know they contacted legacies who didn't go through recruitment or girls they already knew and offered them snap bids.
