I think someone on your campus needs to read the green book. Under Unanimous Agreements, Continuous Open Bidding section, page 97 of the 13th edition (I haven't received the latest edition yet) I quote: "Each NPC fraternity chapter has the right to COB to reach Quota or its total allowable chapter size during the regular school year.........The purpose of Continuous Open Bidding is to enable those chapters which did not pledge Quota, or pledged Quota but did not reach Total, to take additional new members immediately following the designated formal recruitment period."

Someone who knows about this should definitely let me know if I'm wrong, but I think I understand this correctly.
No Tresa, you have it exactly right.

Chapters CAN COB AT ANY TIME (EXCEPT SUMMER) IF THEY ARE NOT AT CAMPUS TOTAL. That's why it's called continuous.

If for any reason your school is forbidding you to do this, contact your regional NPC rep ASAP.
