And I don't want to be rude, so if I do get one I don't want to be, "Hey, thanks. I'll let you know when I hear back from my top choice in a few days; if I don't get it, I'll join with you guys."

Any more advice based on that? Do some sororities have strict 24/48 hour policies, or are some more lax with things like that?
And of course, I don't want to stop showing interest or decline straight up and not get a bid from ABC.

Thank you so much for your help.

If so, couldn't she accept the bid from XYZ, then "drop" and accept ABC's bid (if she was offered one)?

Or do we not know this for sure?
We're talking about two different things here. If you go through formal recruitment and SIGN a bid card and are offered a bid, THEN decline the bid, you cannot go through recruitment for a calendar year.

In this situation, you will not be signing a bid card before deciding whether or not to accept or decline a bid from XYZ. If you decline an offered bid, you are still free to try for ABC AND go through formal recruitment if you don't receive a bid from ABC. XYZ may choose to release you since you turned down a bid...who knows. That's up to them, but there is no rule stopping you from going through. BUT if you accept XYZs bid AND sign a bid card, you are then bound to them.
