At bid day you will get the chance to meet your new sisters. You'll probably be provided dinner or snacks, then, perhaps go to a party at an alum's house or at your new sorority house.
At Tech, the new Alpha Phi members come to the house, where we give them a their first letter shirt. We take a ton of pictures, and give the new members gifts. For many years the mayor of Lubbock, Windy Sitton (an Alpha Phi) hosted a reception at her home for all the new members.
This is also the time when you will learn what to expect during your new member period (or pledgeship).
Above all, expect to have fun. Usually just wear jeans or nice shorts--you'll probably be changing into a new Greek-letter shirt!
Congratulations to you! What sorority will you be joining?
