I'd like to clarify this. MOST of the 250 women will have dropped out. In the largest most competitive rushes in the US, 250 women don't get cut completely from rush. I'd guess that cut completely number to be more like 5. And some will go through the first day and find out it is really hard stressful work and just bail, even before they get their round 2 invitations. If you decide that you want a sisterhood more than you want a particular sisterhood, chances are you will find a home. I'm hoping since you don't know a lot of sorority women you will be fully open minded. But I am concerned that you are going through rush without getting to know sorority women. Work on your social and conversational skills as much as you can in the little time you have left.

Am I hallucinating or did the OP say that 250 out of 400 recived bids? That means that (a still statistically significant, but still probably due to women dropping out on their own) number of women did not join.

To the OP- you need to look at the reasons people might quit the process. There are so many threads here, And at least a few on your school. Research!!
