Shelacious,
juniorgrrl and I attend the same school. There are 10 NPC groups on campus and it is possible to be cut by 8 or 9 of the 10 houses. I went thur Formal Rush Fall 99 and after the first round of parties I only got one invitation back. Had that one house been interested in me still after the second round, I would have pref them and got a bid from them. But for some reason, me and the house didn't click and I was cut after the second round. There is no snap bidding here at my school(as far as I know) and no COB because most of the houses make quota during formal rush. The average size of all of the houses is 180 girls. Roughly, I would say about 1000-3000 girls go thur sorority rush (juniorgrrl can correct me if I'm wrong.) The majority of them being freshmen. When I rushed, I believe I was the only upperclassman who did(and also the only minority). The whole time,my rho chi kept saying how brave I was to be rushing(blah,blah,blah)
As far as how often being cut goes, that really depends. I really don't want to say that upperclassmen get cut more then freshmen because I don't know.
hope this helps
