Go to their pref, since you have not talked to the ladies of SK since first rounds, you can get to know them a little better! If you are not comfortable signing your pref card, then you have that opition.

I dont mean to sound pessimistic, but I dont think you should counting on a snap bid from AXO. I know that in my school, usually only a couple chapters have to give them and even then it is just a couple of girls. If SK likes you enough to invite you to pref, I say just go.

i don't think that anyone here can say anything about the possibility of being snap bid. go to sigma kappa tonight, relax and have fun. pref is a great night! the ceremonies are all so beautiful and it will really give you a much better feel for the sisterhood than first rounds. good luck.

I can't say I agree or disagree because I have no knowledge of UT-K or AXO or anything else, but going to SK's pref will not affect your chances of getting a snap bid at AXO.

In fact, it may help, because AXO may see that you completed recruitment but did not match, instead of seeing that you withdrew early.

I agree with everyone so far, especially DeltaBetaBaby. Going to SK's pref won't hurt your chances of getting a snap bid from AXO.

Don't worry about what you are supposed to say. They all will know that there was some kind of mix up. Just have a normal conversation. Catch up on all the questions you would have liked to have answered the first and second rounds.

Good Luck!!

By the way, did you find out yet what the mix up was?

Pam,

You could go to SK's Preference and still put ACW first on your preference card. You could theoretically put SK last on your card, or not at all.

My suggestion would be to go to Preference and see how you feel. At the end of the night, if you're not feeling it, you don't have to put them on your card-- heck, you don't even have to sign your card. But by all means, don't eliminate your options.

Good luck.

I'm a big believer in things happen for a reason...for some reason you are being magically brought back to SK...check it out...you can go from there on what decision you want to make...you have no obligation to sign a bid card.

...after the Pref you may be dying to sign it though, whether it's SK or AXO.

I'm really hoping that everything ends up working out--either with SK or maybe even the snap bid thing with AXO! I'm totally praying for you!!!!

I would just like to echo everyone that says if you receive a COB it is far from a "pity" bid. Don't let your pride get in the way of something if that is what you want!
