What to tell a girl who didn't get a bid

[texas*princess]

I don't want to sound like the Spelling/Grammar President of the World, but there are a TON of incorrect spellings on the website.

The way the booklet is worded can be misleading.

First of all on the "HOW TO JOIN" page, the first sentence in Step 2 makes it sound like bids are automatic. At least if I were a person who didn't go to a big greek school and knew nothing of greek life I think "This is the official invitation you will receive to join the sorority" makes it sound like every woman who makes it past the foyer of the house will receive one.

If you absolutely must have a booklet on "HOW TO JOIN" Step 3 should say "your" new member pin

Step 3 compares a pinning ceremony to a pledging period. Maybe I'm reading that wrong. Additionally, it says "You are a complete sister with the same respect and all rights of an active member without the ability to vote in meetings" Unless DPhiE does things different (which is a possibility) most NPCs new members are not technically "full sisters" because they have not yet gone through initiation. Being part of ritual is a right of an active member in good standing and women in the new member period are not usually able to see that until they are initiated.

Step 5: says they go through initation and become "a full sister!" but Step 3 says they are "full sisters"

If you continue to distribute a booklet, I think it should be revised so that it is not misleading.

Additionally, like others have said, there should not be a reason to add in a "why you didn't get in" section because really, that's none of their business. If they ask you directly, just go with what others have said and tell them that membershp selection is private.
