Correct me if I am wrong or if I am missing something:

Snap bidding occurs after bid matching is done. When a girl does not match with any sorority at which she attends pref parties, she is eligible to be bid by any chapter that has not matched quota after bid matching ( even if she dropped them earlier).

Example:

Let's say there are 4 sororities (ABC, XYZ, MNO, DEF) and a max of 2 parties you can attend for pref .

Becky attends pref at ABC and XYZ. She ranks them, but does not match with EITHER (they both matched quota before they got to her).

So Panhellenic matches all PNMs and poor Backy is matched with no one. She is eligible for snap bidding.

Well, after everyone has been matched, the OTHER 2 sororities (MNO & DEF) are still under quota. They are eligible to snap bid girls.

Panhellenic says "Becky didn't match with either of the groups on her final card. Which one of you wants Becky?"

One of 3 things could happen:

Situation #1

DEF says "No thank you."
MNO says "sure"
Becky gets a bid from MNO. This could be a group that she cut early on or EVEN in some cases a group that CUT HER. So she may or may not accept because neither of those 2 were on her final list.


Situation #2
Both MNO & DEF could say "no" and Becky goes bidless.

Situation #3
I'm not sure what happens if both sororities would like to bid her. I don't think she gets to choose between the 2. I think she would go to the group that is furthest from quota. (someone chime in if they actually *know* how it works.

To note, at some schools if you Intentionally Single Preference (or "suicide"), you are automatically ineligible for snap bidding. Which means, if you do not match with the one sorority that you list, you go bidless.
