Bid Match

Poster Message:
The chapters will tank every PNM who attended their Pref party. If you attended Pref, you are somewhere on their bid list. Quota is set as the # of PNM’s who attended 1+ Pref party divided by the number of chapters on campus. Then the computer will take each PNM’s Pref card and try to match PNM’s to their #1 choices. If quota is 100 (just to keep it simple) and you are in their top 100, congrats you match as a bid. Not all of their top PNM’s will tank the house #1 so if there are still spots in the pledge class, the computer will run through all the PNM’s again trying to match more PNM’s who ranked the chapter #1. If the house fills to quota before your name comes up, then you match to your #2 choice. If your #2 choice is also full at that point, then you would (Most likely) match to #1 as a Quota Addition since you maximized your options. You could be added to your #2 as a QA if their chapter is much smaller than your #1. If you had not listed your #2 on your Pref card and did not Bid Match to #1 before they filled to quota, you would not receive a bid and would not be eligible to be added to #1 as a Quota Addition.
