Titchou must not have seen your question.
YES, and that is one of the best blessings of using RFM - more chapters reach quota and sometimes beyond, and more women are pledged.
There is no such thing as "open bids to distribute later."
If a chapter has openings - and this is really based on average chapter size rather than a recruitment quota - the chapter may use Continuous Open Bidding (COB, or by its old term, open rush) to fill those slots. This often happens for some of the smaller groups, and will sometimes happen now that so many students graduate in December.
But you cannot count on
any chapters - large or small - having spaces available.
