Speaking from my experience with a very large and very competitive Recruitment, re-inviting a PNM who you dropped or who dropped you in a previous round can be done. With the ICS program it is not difficult because all you need to do is go to a previous round's invitation/selection screen where the PNMs name was still listed as an option. (I don't know about any of the other programs used for Recruitment.) However, it does not happen often and only when there is some sort of unique/extreme circumstance.

With that being said though, switching from the old accept/regret to preferential ranking has made this more complicated. The reason being PNMs rank the chapters they attended immediately following the parties -- before the chapters invitation lists are submitted. The PNM would have no idea that XYZ chapter wants to re-invite her and so she wouldn't include them on her ranking list.

Therefore a phone call to Panhellenic is necessary. If the PNM doesn't have a full schedule the re-inviting chapter can be easily added, assuming the PNM wants to accept. If the PNMs schedule is already full, Panhellenic can give her the option to accept the re-invite then cut one of the chapters on her schedule. Or if a PNM had withdrawn from Recruitment (either voluntarily or totally cut) then Panhellenic needs to contact her otherwise she wouldn't even know she had an invitation out there.
