I'm a little surprised at AXD's colonization procedure. When there's a local sorority already on campus that has expressed interest in going national, I thought the national took all women in the local (except those who don't make grades or are ax murderers or something), and ONLY the women in the local; then it's up to the new colony to rush in new members and get up to chapter size. The colony gets help from nationals, but it's the colony members who vote on who is invited to join.

That's the way it worked when my local sorority became a chapter of AEPhi. We met as a group with some AEPhi national officers; both groups decided it was a good fit; and we thus became a colony of AEPhi. It was then up to us to hold rush and attract enough new members to get to chapter size.

What does NPC have to say on the question?
