She got a 3.5 gpa first semester at IU and participated at several campus philanthropic events- here's the thing ..she's a kinesiology AND dance major- as a dance major she was in a show during 12 party so prior to even 21 party she had to indicate that she had one major rehearsal for the show and the actual Saturday show...conflict forms and she Hoped not to be penalized but in reading here and her ONLY other friend that did NOT get a bid was a dancer too- so? What am I to think as her mom?
She was told at a house during 3 she was a perfect fit. During 12 another house said she felt like she was a sister already and get this she's a legacy at another house and wasn't asked to 3 party. My daughter had an open mind and comes from a family that is still involved in their greek organizations - she is registered for informal but I know it's not going to happen because no house will have not have met quota. She would love to get a "snap" bid but said how would they know she exists to want to give her one... We knew the process was a tough one which is why she worked her butt off to get a great gpa and be involved on campus in the fall. If any of you are in houses and have a snap bid to give - she's an awesome candidate. She has spent her life developing and working with philanthropies in fact her life goal is dance therapy to help girls who have to deal with emotional and physical issues. But the dancer thing still doesn't seem to make sense .... Thanks for listening and congrats to all those that were successful!

Snap bids are only given out on Bid Day and the PNM would not know she got one. It's blended in with the others. So that boat has sailed for her. Is she registering for the colonization process?
