It sounds like the competition is more between the fraternities than the PNMs.
Anyway, here's hoping for a lot of posts!

JAM,
PNMs going through fraternity rush can receive one bid or multiple bids, they then make the decision which house to pledge (they are not bid matched). Though rush can be competitive for fraternities, it is different from sorority formal rush... I would compare it to sorority informal rush (except all the houses participate and alcohol is not completely off limits). Formal is a bit more structured, but on some campuses (after open house day) you do not have to go back to every house that invites you.
Good luck with to your son! If he is anything like your daughter, he will be fine! He can not go wrong with a supportive mom!
