I have been both charter member of my chapter and a colony supervisor for another chapter in Alpha Phi. Both colonizations took a different amount of time from colony pledging to chartering. I know that Alpha Phi tries to look at both what is realistic for that group (ie there is a difference in the timelines when you are starting with an existing local or a colonization from "scratch") and what is realistic for that campus (are most groups at ceiling, do you have the same amount of frosh/soph as other groups)
I hope that helps...are you in the process of going "national"??
