I understand it that if a person gets a bid through bid matching, as in any of the sororities that the write down on their preference card match their bid, they cannot receive another bid for a year. This means that if they get the second choice and decide they do not want it, they must wait a year.
However, if a bid is extended through Open Bidding, there is no restriction on the amount of time they must wait to get another one.
So, if she received the bid without matching the bid, she should be able to accept another bid at any point.
But... the situation is weird... so who knows???
wow, that sounds complicated. let me see if i can disect it....

- if you receive a bid during formal recruitment and do not sign, you cannot receive another bid, even during COB, for one calendar year

- if you receive a bid during COB and DO NOT SIGN, you are eligible to accept another bid at any time.

- if you receive a bid during COB and you DO SIGN, then you are bound for one calendar year (still must sign a COB acceptance card).

for reference, see the NPC manual of information pages MR-52 and 59.
