Snap bids happen after preference parties, prior to the start of Bid Day, when bids are actually opened. COB happens after formal/primary recruitment is finished. Hope this helps.

ILMOM - Check the Mizzou PHA website in a few weeks. Mizzou adopted a more formal procedure last year for Spring COB. Interested girls fill out a form on line, and PHA makes those forms available to any sororities who are COB'ing. It seemed like a good number of sororities COB'd the Spring '15 semester. However, filling out the form does not guarantee any of the sororities will invite you to their COB events.

Maybe it is just me, but many more stories from Mizzou this year of girls only having one or two houses left after round two, then being released just before preference. Last year, I only remember stories of girls dropping out when they didn't get invitations back to their favorites (a lot of girls did that this morning).

I'll be interested in seeing what quota is tomorrow. Fewer girl signed up for recruitment, and with all the releases and withdrawals, I'm expecting smaller pledge classes this year.

AZTheta: Can you explain what a snap bid is? You mentioned it happens after pref parties but before bid day. I'm not sure what it is or how often it occurs. Any guidance would be much appreciated. Thanks!
