3. Can someone explain the process to me a little more, I'm a little confused. So the first night, you go to all of the houses, do they make their first cut then, so you might not go to all the houses again the next day?
4. If you go to pref night, lets say you are invited to 2 houses, since pref night is the last night before bid day, does that usually mean that you are getting a bid? Can you go to the pref night and still not get a bid on bid day?
5. Is bid day done infront of everyone? Meaning, do you personally get an invitation or gather somewhere and they will call your name if you got a bid?
I'm sorry I know that's a bunch of questions, anything will help!!

As AlphaFrog said, it depends on the campus, but GENERALLY SPEAKING:
1)kick it up a notch with some ballet flats rather than flip-flops
2)yes you will be at a disadvantage. Play up all of your positives. Try and connect with the people rushing you beyond name, major, hometown
3)yes, cuts are generally made the first day. usually for grades, but again, it depends on the campus
4)yes you can go to pref night and not recieve a bid on bid day.
5)it really depends, but usually you will be notified if you are not recieving a bid so that you don't show up and don't have one. Normally you get a paper invitation that states who you are getting the bid from.
But again, it all depends on the school.
Oh, and GOOD LUCK!
