My advice to you on expansion (and this is in addition to Senusret's response below):
- Once you have looked at potential campuses that you are interested in expanding to, talk to the Greek Life/Student Orgs office. Just because you are interested in expanding to that campus, there may be a variety of reasons why the campus is not ready to expand.
- Talk to members of various orgs at the campus(es) you want to expand to- though you may see a need for an organization like yours on that campus, it may not be the first org to be there and there may not be an actual need (or desire) for the org to be on the campus at that time
- Once you do begin the expansion process, look into working with a council of similar orgs on that campus, or if you can't find a council with similar orgs, again, talk to the Greek Life/Student Orgs staff about finding other orgs to help support you during and after the expansion.
- Be sure that all of your members are interested in expanding and are all willing to help with the process. I've seen a few chapters on my campus where one or two people were interested in expanding, but the rest of the chapter wasn't interested at all, and the new colonies ended up failing.
Good luck
