What You Need To Know

<strong>Subject:</strong><br />Pref: Suicide Bidding, The MRABA, Quota Additions <br /><br /> Poster Message:
Happy pref! Here's what you need to know about your options when making your decision tonight... Single Intention Preference (Suicide): Only do this if you would rather not been in Greek Life than the one house you are putting down. If you only went to one house for pref this does not apply to you. You are also limiting your chances of getting your top house when you do this. Why is that? Because of quota additions. Quota Additions: You are told to maximize your potential for a reason. If you are low on both your top and second choice houses bid list you will automatically be placed on the bid list of your top choice house. You will never know this was the case, nobody in your pc will know, and only a few members of your chapters exec and panhel will know this is the case. The process will always favor those who are more open. Houses do not "drop" girls after pref, everyone invited back for pref is someone they want in the chapter. The chapter will order every single pnm and then be matched via pnm preference until the pledge class is full. MRABA: The MRABA feels scary but this is what you should know; you CAN rush again if you are unhappy with your house and drop before initiation. What you cannot do is COB - The purpose is to prevent girls from accepting a bid at one house, getting poached (essentially) by another house, then dropping and switching houses just because you feel like it. But you can always rush again next fall as long as you're not initiated. + A note on COB - Every year so many girls drop thinking COB is how they'll get the house they want and very rarely that is the case. Do what you want, but COB is never guaranteed, sometimes not advertised, and you should not spend your freshman year focused on networking your way into a cob bid. If you were invited back for pref someone fought to get you there, you are someones rush crush, and they are going to be excited to have you there tomorrow!
