There is no "average". Each situation and colonization is unique.

So with that in mind, I made the hard decision to drop out right before Bid Day. I don't know if this should be noted but the sorority did offer me a bid after I dropped out, but I still politely declined the bid (No point in taking away something from another girl who may really want it)

You said that you dropped out "right before Bid Day". What did you actually DO to "drop out"? You haven't answered the question about whether or not you signed a bid card... that is really critical. If you signed a bid card after Pref, then you are not eligible to rush again until Fall of 2013 even if you rejected the bid that you were offered.
