actually looking back on this now, that is probably what they meant. i was just so confused i guess because of how it was phrased...which i don't remember exactly. but if you have any insight i am curious  |
There is no guaranteed bid system at W&L. Some schools guarantee you a bid if you maximize your options throughout recruitment - this is true. W&L does not.
That said, if you maximize your options, you will more than likely get a bid at W&L. It's a very small number who completely "fall through" recruitment (as it's known on campus) due to all the sororities releasing them. The majority of women who don't receive bids at W&L don't receive bids because they choose not to join certain groups.
