Not to say that everyone who works for a university knows exactly what they're talking about, but there is a pretty good chance the girls you talked to was telling the truth.

There are a HANDFUL of schools who have enacted policies where EVERY PNM IS REQUIRED to get a bid in the end to one of the sororities (I can think of Tufts and Creighton who do). Other than those, no there are no guarantees.

Anyone who tells a PNM that they're GUARANTEED to get a bid is probably very misinformed about the process, because recruitment is a mutual selection process and nothing about that is guaranteed.
