I am worried that I will go through recruitment, possibly receive a bid from another sorority and have to turn it down, and then not be given a bid at ZTA.

You could go through recruitment, and if you do receive invitations to preference, go, and THEN decide whether you want to rank or try for ZTA. No harm in getting more information.

Please understand that there is no guarantee that those that do drop out of formal will receive and invitation to be part of the colony.

As opposed to not letting PNMs drop out? Recruitment is a voluntary process. PNMs can drop out any time they like. I am unsure of what you mean by this.
