God help anybody you are giving advice to because you know absolutely nothing. The sororities are making the decisions here about the cuts, pnm's don't drop houses. Only tippy top girls that several chapters are fighting over have that luxury and those are a very small number of girls. Snap bid chance is slim to none and it is a terrible strategy for a pnm. A house that dropped a pnm earlier is really not going to turn around and offer a snap. And she's not getting a snap from her #1 pref house either if she didn't match to them on a suicide because they would have matched to quota before they got to her and they will not be issuing any snaps. BUT, if that pnm has not SIP'd (suicided) and doesn't match with #1 or #2 before they each fill to quota, she will still get a bid through Quota Plus and the algorithm will try to match her with her #1. Not a guarantee but it's still a chance. If she SIP's then this is not an option if she doesn't match with that one house, and she's without a bid and getting a heartbreaking call. And COB's right after bid day aren't really a thing unless a house still didn't reach quota and really wants/needs some new members, but if it's just one or two they move on and focus on their new member class. COB is usually a second semester thing. By then House Total is reset and houses may be picking up some new pnm's but there is no spring rush and most COB's are offered privately. A pnm's best shot at a bid is fall recruitment and you can't ever get your first semester experience back. It is the absolute best. All houses offer experiences that are far more similar than different. At every house, you're part of a large new member class that will form bonds and find close friend groups, (and finding 3-5 close friends you LOVE is winning), have football game days and parties, homecoming, formals, all that stuff. Most people can find a close friend group, when houses here are so large, if they will open their heart, give it a chance at #2, and make an effort as a new member. Girls do this all the time and find out they are so happy, would never want another house, and never look back. If a pnm does this and still isn't feeling it, she can drop before initiation and try again in the fall.
