I am not so sure about the mergers though. Haven't most of the groups that have merged have involved groups that had become fairly small, less than 20 chapters. While some groups in NPC are always going to be smaller I don't see any getting to that point, at least not anytime soon. Without naming groups has anyone really heard talks of any specific NPC groups merging.
In terms of additional groups growing are there any regional/ national non-npc sororities in the npc model that are around that are at 10 chapters, let alone 20? Most of the non-npc groups that are more than 20 chapters are multi-cultural groups/ethnic groups that use nphc as a model in terms of intake styles, graduate student membership, regional collegiate chapters instead of campus based chapters, etc. Kappa Beta Gamma is a great group but I don't think they'll be at the required size for a while. The only other one I could think of is Sigma Alpha Epsilon Pi but I feel like the reason they have grown is because they don't have use NPC extension procedures.
