My school just went to deferred recruitment, and they haven't altered total at all, so yes, all chapters were below total last fall, and they COB'd. AEPhi is way under total, and in the past, they've usually been the only sorority COB'ing; last fall, they lost the "protection" of total, and wound up without a fall new member class.
The big problem with the new deferred rush is that numbers have really fallen off... people get involved with other activities and can't fit in another one, plus it's their first semester on grades (first term freshman year is pass/no record) so they have that to worry about too.
