but i'm freaking out because i looked at the recruitment schedule and bid day is on a monday and i have a FULL class schedule on mondays.

i know i'm thinking too far ahead since i dont even know if i'll get a bid, but if i do, how do i accept it? and would they still let me have it even though i wont be able to participate in anything on that day? i'm super bummed about it. i cant believe i'd have to miss that day.

This Monday is Labor Day, does your school hold classes that day? Our pref day/bid night is Monday and there are no classes that day.

She says she's rushing this upcoming week and today is Sunday so I'm thinking she means next Monday the 13th.

^yes that's what i meant. sorry i didnt clarify.

but okay thanks guys. i was worried that they'd take away your bid if dont show up.

i get out of class at 6pm on mondays, and bid day starts at noon is what the schedule says. how long do bid day events typically last? will i miss everything if i don't show up?

That very much depends on the campus. Again, talk to your recruitment counselors. If it were me I would miss the class I had during the main event (noon) and then explain to the sisters that I had to go back to classes if I felt I couldn't miss any others. Just see what your attendance policies are and what the schedule is in your classes (tests/quizzes) and if it's not possible to miss any on Monday, you'll still get your bid, you'll just miss the festivities.

And note: I do not advocate missing classes for sorority activities in general, I'm just suggesting it here because Bid Day is so memorable and exciting. But at the end of the day if you get a bid and can't attend you'll still have plenty of other memorable and exciting events to attend over the next 4 years.
