Both sdbeta1 and LightBulb have some good questions that if answered, might help with advice. However, I am guessing that you signed a bid at a summer rush event.
Is it a big deal to back out now that you have signed a bid? Frankly, it depends on the campus culture and the campus' IFC rules.
Find out what are your campus' rules and guidelines - both official *and* "unofficial" - around bids.
Generally speaking, if your bid is official (turned in to and accepted by IFC etc.), then most likely you can not accept a bid to any other chapter for at least a semester. Or might even be for a full year.
On the other hand, the campus culture may be that even if you have signed a bid, you *may* be able to resend it. That can be a chapter to chapter call in that some chapters will "release" you, others will not. Again, you need to know what you can and can not do at this point. And what the consequences might be.
What may not be "official" yet part of the campus culture is how much does this kind of stuff happen? It may be that it isn't that big a deal. Until school starts, it might be considered "ok" for a rushee to resend their acceptance. On the other hand, it might be that the other chapters, knowing that you originally accepted a bid to another chapter, will not or can not extend you a bid.
Again, and I can't emphasize this enough, you need to know both the official and unofficial rules and guidelines regarding your campus' rush.
