The different terms referring to Quota are time-sensitive:
If a chapter MATCHES Quota, then they matched to Quota during regular formal recruitment bid matching.
If a chapter MAKES Quota, they can do so either by MATCHING to Quota, SNAPPING to Quota, or CORing to Quota.
Let's say Quota is 30. A chapter can match 30, but then 2 decline. They still matched Quota, and they can still COR the 2 missing ones to replace the declines. Thereby making Quota.
Snap Bidding occurs only during the time between formal bid matching and bid day ceremonies. So Snap Bids will attend bid day festivities and no one else in the pledge class will know they are snap bids unless they tell. If a chapter still has fewer pledges than Quota after bid day ceremony, they are able to COR to fill those positions.
Because of this, bids that are declined must be replaced by COR rather than snap bidding. There might be a rare campus out there that informs PNMs of their bids way way in advance of bid day ceremonies. But there are also some interpretations of the term "snap bidding" to mean taking place in the time between matching and the DISTRIBUTION of bids. So once bids go out, no more snapping.
