2007 UGA Recruitment

[Low C Sharp]

If you can't give snap bids to girls who dropped out, you have to give them only to girls that you previously cut, which seems super-weird.

There's a third category -- girls who cut your group and then didn't match. Suppose you are House X, a solid but not elite group. House X invited Susie PNM to pref, but she regretted the pref because she was also invited by superstar groups A, B, and C. Susie PNM ranks all 3 superstars on her bid card, but she's at the bottom of the third bid list at all three of them, and ends up bidless. House X offers a snap bid to Susie, since it wanted to have her at pref anyway. Susie says yes because she liked House X okay, just less than she liked A, B, and C.

This scenario times 10 = 10 pref-less snap bids. Not hard to imagine at a campus that big.

You're right, and I had completely forgotten about that category of PNM. In addition to it happening after pref, I bet it could happen to a girl who might have cut groups after first, but not make it to prefs with other groups.

(It's always a little hard for me to imagine how it happens because so many more girls drop out than get cut and most girls who pref three will match to one.)

I'm not sure why people are saying you can't give snap bids to girls who dropped out. Is this just a UGA rule? I know at my campus the girls who got snap bids were almost 100% of the time girls who dropped out before pref. Either they wouldn't get the invites they wanted or would just decided they had enough with rush, but either way I can't remember a time when any chapter gave a snap bid to a girl that they had cut! That just seems strange. Every chapter would get a list of girls who had withdrawn just in case we didn't make quota and wanted to give a snap bid to them.
