Informal Recruitment
With hosting a formal recruitment in the fall, the Illinois Panhellenic Council supports the efforts of Informal Recruitment at the conclusion of fall recruitment and into the spring semester.
What is Informal Recruitment/COB?
Continuous Open Bidding (COB) is a recruitment opportunity outside of formal recruitment for those interested in joining the Panhellenic Community. Individuals can attend various events hosted by chapters and may be extended a bid. These events are relaxed and conversational, and serve as another opportunity for you to learn more about the Panhellenic community and our members!
Who is involved in COB?
Not all chapters participate in this informal process, as this varies from year-to-year. You can learn more about events chapters are hosting by staying up to date with their social media pages.
Who is eligible for COB?
Women who received a bid during the Primary Recruitment process, or in the Parkland Pathways Program, are not eligible in participating in COB.
To begin this process, fill out the form above. Filling out a COB Interest Form does not guarantee that a sorority will contact a potential new member nor does it guarantee that she will receive a bid.
