I've not seen one of our colonies take more than a semester. The colonizaton/recolonization occurs early in the semester and they are installed by the end of that semester. We do have a special volunteer team that continues to work with them while they are a new chapter (new chapter development) and it can take some time for them to be removed from that status. That is just to ensure that they receive a lot of extra support until they are financially, organizationally, and numerically stable.
I'm curious.. when it takes longer than a semester and a colonist ends up graduating before the colony is installed, what happens with their membership?
