Most schools with GP add the NM's as quota additions which aren't supposed to exceed a specific percentage of quote (most schools use 10% as I believe is recommended by the Greenbook -- but don't have my GB in front of me so don't quote me).

Ther eis a difference b/w Guaranteed Bidding and Guaranteed Placement. Under a Guaranteed Bidding system the chapters must place all women who go through recruitment. There are only a few schools that do this across the country. Creighton University is an example of one.

Guaranteed Placement, as described well above, doesn't really allow the PNMs to mess with the system at all. It is FAIR. If a woman goes through rush and attends all of the parties she is invited to she should be matched to one of the chapters she preferences. If the chapters are carrying too many people at preference and get too large of pledge classes then the greek advisor needs to look at the release figure methodology. The PNMs should not be punished b/c the release figures were not done correctly.
