Snap bids are for chapters who don't make quota. They can contact any girl who wasn't offered a bid elsewhere. The problem is if the chapter didn't make quota, the girl who was too good to put them on their list earlier probably still won't accept them.

Or stated another way, if a girl goes through 2 rounds of rush and then drops out, she would be available for a snap bid. But this is a bad plan of action for a girl dropping out because, especially in the days of RFM (the system explained above), most chapters ARE making quota, and if they don't, they're only missing by a few.

In this system, the girls who literally get cut completely from rush, even when the total number of girls going through is 1000 or more, can likely be counted on 1 hand. 2 hands MAYBE. The vast majority of girls who don't find a home dropped out because they weren't happy with their results. Like if 100 girls didn't complete rush, 95 of them would have dropped out, not been cut.

The University of Illinois provides EXCELLENT statistics on all of this, and you can assume their numbers are comparable to other competitive schools around the country. You can find it from an online search.
