Hi I have a question and I am hoping someone can help. I rushed this week. Went to seven sororities the first day. Then ranked my top five and my two alternates. I went the second day and received all of my top five and had great conversations and was told I was ranked straight 10's by one sorority by each girl who met me. Then the third day before rush I get a phone call telling me that I did not get a bid from one sorority including my two alternates. Is that possible? I feel like their must be an error.

Yes, it is possible. This assumes that I understand your post correctly as follows.

You did not receive any invitations past the second day of parties, correct? You did not attend preference round at any chapters, correct?

Yes. It's possible to not receive an invite to a chapter you were invited back to twice.

There's not always an error when someone doesn't receive an invite, no matter what a member may tell you.

Also, take all membership selection info from actual members (ex: "you were ranked straight 10s") with a grain of salt.

You don't actually know that for certain.

Yes It is that I did not receive an invite to any of my top three choices nor my two alternates on the third day. When the second day I received all five of my choices.
