Far more common is girl goes through the first round of rush, gets cut from her favorite sororities and then drops out. We get I don't know how many of those posts here on GC. On further explanation, she only got invited back to the bad sorority who she is far and away too good for, so it's the same as being cut by everyone. And as a Mom, you should know that special snowflake daughter will make this life altering decision based on meeting likely 3 girls for no more than 10 minutes each, and probably more like 5 minutes. When your daughter is going through, really press her hard to stick with the process. Her opinion is almost guaranteed to change as the week progresses.
Also, at schools with a ton of chapters (like my alma mater), we typically see a few women every year who have a great first round, return to all the strongest chapters in round two, and then get entirely released, whereas, if they had chosen to take a second look at some of the chapters who were more towards the middle or a bit lower in recruiting strength, the would have been just fine. Again, this is only a handful, and RFM is designed to minimize this, but sometimes, a bit of reality in the early rounds will come back to a PNM in spades.
