I don't want to just drop out. But I have my heart set on PepperAnn, so if I don't get it I don't wont to settle for 3rd out of 4. Doesn't seem like a good idea, since it is a lifelong deal. If anything I would want to go thru again and hopefully get one I really love.

There is no rule that I know of that says you need to list all four houses. If you honestly feel that PepperAnn is still the best house for you, then put PepperAnn first on your Bid Card, then Lizzie, then Doug. At a small school (or with a small Greek system), you could still be on PepperAnn & Lizzie's Bid List, just not on the top - and their first choices might choose someone else.
It's a somewhat complicated system that is used to determine actual bids, but I've seen some VERY strange things happen at Bid Matching!! The one thing you do
not want to do is to put a sorority on your Bid Card which you absolutely do not want any part of. You can also note on a Bid Card that you would be open to COB. There won't be a space for that, per se, but it will show your openness.
Keep your chin up! The chapter I used to advise gets roughly half of their sisters through COB (which amazes me, since my chapter was so perfectly
awful at it!!); COB just might release some of the "rush tension", on both you and the chapters!
