Hi, I do a lot of recs and advise PNMs rushing in the SEC, ACC, Big 10 and other competitive recruitments. The number one reason PNMs go bidless? They CHOOSE to drop out of recruitment. And the number one reason they do this? They don't like their return invites after a certain round. They get dropped by their favorites and that's it. They're done and won't even give other sororities a chance. You know what? Most of those PNMs end up regretting it. Rush ends, they see sororities and meet member in "real life" and they realize that the girls in ABC, LMN and XYZ really are great and that they might've found a sorority home they loved. Getting dropped by a favorite hurts, it does, but you have to look at everyday of recruitment as a new chance. Move on and focus on the sororities that do invite you back. Opinions can change a lot as recruitment goes on, you meet more sisters and learn more about the houses. Try to find new favorites and see it through. If you drop, you definitely won't be running to your new sisters on Bid Day. And that is why the majority of bidless PNMs endup that way. Some decide to rush again the next year and try once more for the houses that cut them. Sometimes it works out, but in competitive recruitments, second time around is often harder unless something big has changed since their first try.
