Anyway my daughter has a friend that lives in her dorm who dropped out during Fall rush. This girl wants to be an AOII badly....but it sounds like AOII with a house total of over 200 would not be allowed to participate. I will recommend that her friend wait until next Fall when she is a sophomore. Thank you for your help. Have you ever heard of a sorority offering a bid to someone even though they filled their quota?
NO. A sorority CANNOT offer bids after they've met quota and total.

Here's the thing....
I was OK with ignoring the Helicopter parents...I'm a parent myself, I can sympathize a little...but you're now helicoptering YOUR DAUGHTER'S FRIEND??? WHAT.THE.EFF.???

The questions you asked us should have been asked BY YOUR DAUGHTER to her sorority's MEMBERSHIP CHAIR...not by YOU on GREEKCHAT.

By the way... you WERE a Tri Delta??? Did you turn in your pin?

ETA: I realize I was harsh, and I'm sorry...but AOII BAMA MOM, have you not read ANYTHING else on here? The boards have not been favorable this year to moms who are spoon feeding their daughters and living vicariously.
