NIC is the North-American Interfraternity Conference, to which (inter)national organizations belong. IFC is a campus Interfraternity Council (which may go by a different name), to which chapters belong. It is possible for a fraternity chapter to be a member of a campus IFC even if its national organization doesn't belong to the NIC. It is also, I suppose, possible for a chapter of an NIC fraternity not to belong to a campus IFC -- if, say, the chapter is not recognized by the school.
