Sorority question...please be brutally honest

In regards to being guaranteed a bid…My daughter had a very successful reruitment last year with a full party scheduled each day. Granted she had terrific grades, desirable extra curriculars and we worked mightily to get recs because we knew that it was going to be a bit harder being from out of state and not having any previous conection to the Greek system. But when Greek Chic came out last year I know it made her (and me) feel more at ease when we read this statement in the NPC MRABA (page 21 of this year’s Greek Chic):

“Only Potential New Members who maximize their options and list ALL of the Chapters that they attended during the Preference Round are guaranteed to receive a bid for membership during formal recruitment.”

Since she was bound and determined to maximize her options this statement took some of the pressure off. It sounded like a guarantee to us. And of course alls well that ends well. She loves her sorority and is looking forward to living in a palatial home this year as well as being on the other side of recruitment.
