When are bid days usually?
 

Hey guys so I just finished rush week on Sunday and met many brothers as I could especially the rush chairs. It was great and Now my question is when exactly is bid day? Or typically how many days after the end of rush? Supposedly it was supposed to be today which is Wednesday but it didn't happen so can anyone tell me how much longer I should be on edge for haha? I really don't want to appear pushy and ask one of the brothers and hurt my chances

There is absolutely no way for us to know this. We don't even know what school you go to. This is something you will have to ask Greek Life or a fraternity member on campus. You knew there was a pretty good chance that you might not get a bid due to grades... you need to be prepared for the chance that bids WERE extended today and you did not receive one.

Yes I am prepared for the worst but wouldn't they also tell me if I didn't get one??

I don't think it works that way for fraternities, but that is not my lane....

Okay thanks for your input

Fraternity rush works different ways on different campuses. Check with your Greek Life office to see how bids are given out.

-Campuses with informal rush sometimes just have the bids delivered to the guys personally in their dorm rooms or apartments. The fraternity may call you and ask you to come to the house and pick up your bid.

-Campuses with informal or semi-formal rush sometimes have the bids at a designated spot with a designated pick up time. You go and get the bid and either go directly to the house or meet in an area with you new pledge class.

-Campuses with formal rush sometimes do the same as the example I gave you above.

It's a GC cliche: It all depends on your campus.

At my school we had rush Sunday-Friday, then Saturday morning a rep from IFC, the Fraternity president, and fraternity rush chair would go door to door giving out bids. You only heard from the people that gave you bids. We then had the whole day where no fraternity guy could speak to you, to make sure no one swayed you one way or another, then that night there was bid turn in where we lined-up by fraternity and signed "the book" that all men that pledged before us have signed.

We were a very small school (only about 1,200 students) with 7 NIC fraternities (kinda too many haha) and now 1 NHPC. So I'm sure other schools don't do as formal stuff, but I have no clue. Also the IFC just got rid of formal recruitment so I don't know how it'll be done now (also I transferred so I don't go there anymore).
