Did you read ComradesTrue's response? She answered you. robinseggblue is thinking about formal recruitment, not COB. See the Green Book for specifics.

CliffNotes version: you can rush in the Fall.

It is permitted to rush again after accepting a bid & dropping out. Doesn't mean you will get a bid the second time around, but you can rush in the fall. And YES, they will know that you rushed, accepted a bid and then dropped out. I won't sugar coat it, that will be a really big issue for you.

I realize that you WANT to join a sorority. Please be completely sure that you can afford it this time. It is not all about what you want. Please don't take a spot in a pledge class, only to drop out again for the same reason.

So basically my chances of getting a bid this time around will be much lower? And also, I'm not planning on hiding the fact that I accepted a bid and dropped. If they ask, then I'll tell them.

Sorry I didn't realize, my mistake.

IMO, "I couldn't afford it" isn't going to cut it. YMMV.

No one here can tell you what your chances of receiving a bid will be. We don't know. Just go thru rush again in the fall, keep ALL your options open, and see how it goes.
