before philanthropy!

by: Sister

I know there are some of you PNMs out there so please listen up. It's true that this weekend is filled with the biggest cuts, but before you get upset about the sororities that didn't invite you back, get excited about the ones that did! Getting asked back to any chapter during philanthropy means that that chapter chose you to be in their room. Even if you don't necessarily see yourself being part of that chapter, the sisters are so excited for you to be there! Give everyone a chance and see what happens!

So nervous about tonight. Of the 5 I had during sisterhood round. I can see myself in 4 of them.

Just curious what is snap bidding?

Someone posted about it here: www.greekrank.com/uni/109/topic/555799/sorority-cuts/

Snap bids are extended when a chapter does not meet quota through regular bid matching. They are given to girls who withdrew from recruitment before preference round begins. They are ONLY GIVEN TO PNMS THAT A SORORITY WAS STILL INVITING BACK.
So, you get to philanthropy round today. You have ABC and XYZ sororities, and let's say you really didn't want them, whatever. You drop out(not advised of course, give them a chance!), bid day comes, ABC has met quota and won't be extending snap bids. XYZ hasn't met quota, so they will be extending snap bids. Someone like their president or recruitment chair MIGHT call you on bid day and ask if you'd like to accept a bid. You can say yes or no. If you say yes, you will go to bid day, sign your bid card, and no one else has to know you were a snap bid.
Now let's say your favorite sorority, DEF, didn't make quota either. Well they can extend snap bids, but because they cut you at some point already, they will not be extending you a snap bid most likely. Sororities only extend snap bids to PNMs they know that they already could have seen in their chapter, and if they already had cut you then that means they couldn't see you as a member. Does that make sense?
So 2 main things with snap bids, 1. There is no garuntee they will happen/happen to you, and 2. If sororities have cut you they will not be extending you a snap bid either.
