I'm a little confused, you attended 2 events but have not yet heard anything back? Hmm. I would ask her to pass along your info and maybe they'll get back to you with a response.

Just so you know, it may not be every chapter's policy to notify girls if they have not been invited back or extended a bid. I know this isn't the best policy, but some chapters do assume that you'll just "get the hint" when no one gets back to you.

I hope you hear something soon either way.

Yeah, I know our chapter did it like that too. We would have a few open events, then have a couple invite only events and then hand out bids maybe the next day after that. In this case, no news is bad news. I would have the office e-mail my info and see if you get a more definitive response. It could be that they're slacking on giving out bids - it just depends on the chapter as to their timeline of doing things. I hope we hear a happy ending!!!

But in this case she doesn't know when bids were supposed to be handed out. I agree not everyone needs to be contacted, but the least a chapter could do is clearly define when the date of the bids will be extended. No one should be completely left in the dark. A simple "Friday by 4pm, if a bid is extended a sister will personally visit you/the MD will call you/the chapter will bum rush you in the street and sing a song in your ear, etc." will do.

Oh, I totally agree. Unfortunately, there's a large number of chapters that just don't say anything if someone isn't invited to join.
