Snaps and COB

Poster Message:
If you attend pref round you are not eligible for a snap bid. If you sign your MRABA card and don't accept that bid, or accept and then drop, you are not eligible for any bid until next fall's formal recruitment. If you suicide and don't get that house, you were on their bid list but too low to be matched, so it's not like they actually dropped you. So yes, there is a very small chance they would offer you a COB, but this is very rare and not a good strategy at all. Snap Bid: Offered by a house before bid day if the house didn't make quota through bid matching after pref. Only PNM's who did not attend the pref round are eligible for a snap bid. Snap bids are RARE and no PNM should count on one. COB: After bid day, houses that still didn't make quota, or that are under chapter total, may offer bids through COB. COB bids are not all that common either, so PNM's should not consider this as a viable alternative. Houses offer these bids to girls who dropped them or dropped out of recruitment, or who didn't go through recruitment at all. They almost never offer a bid to a girl they previously released. Therefore, dropping out of recruitment because you don't like your choices will not yield you any other choices than you had at pref.
