I know I am a little late to this discussion, but....
When I went through rush, I knew a girl who put one sorority as her first choice and then my sorority as her second choice. She went to bid day and spent the entire day CRYING. She did not participate in any of the activities they were having. She basically sat in a room while sisters tried to console her and help her feel that her decision was the right one. She told them that she was going to depledge because she was that unhappy. They recognized how unhappy she was and called panhel, the greek advisor, and my chapter's president (bc she said that she wanted to be Phi Mu) and released her from her bid. She came to our house the very next day to join our class and was happy as a clam! I guess my house had done the same in the past for someone else who wanted to join their sorority. I think it was really great for them to realize that she wasn't happy. They could have been really "bi***y and made her wait another year. By that time, I am sure she wouldn't have wanted to be greek (we have sophomore deferrment, so she would have been a junior).
