If you add all of the women who withdrew/no show that is 376....so that would tell me there were 376 women who chose not to continue through recruitment.  I would guess it is mostly because they got houses they thought were "awkward".  
Assuming the IU system stays in place and all chapters met quota, it would seem expansion is a no brainer.  BUT, would these 376 bother with joining those chapters who would expand.  Somehow I doubt it.  But maybe I am just crabby tonight.  Thoughts?

2013 
Number of women who registered for recruitment 1733 
Number of women who participated in bid matching 1160 
Number of women who matched 1025 
  
So that's a 59.145% match rate overall. The next group of stats will show you where the women dropped, were released, etc. 
  
  
Released or withdrew: 
withdraw/no show for 21-party    104 
grade release for less than 2.7    182 
withdraw/no show for 14-party    67 
withdraw/no show for 8-party    43 
released after 8-party    11 
withdraw after 3-party    162 
released after 3-party (no bid)    135 
Total number unmatched    704 
  
The total number unmatched, as you see, includes grade releases and no shows (286 women of the original 1733).
