I'll try to explain succinctly. If a PNM maximizes her choices throughout recruitment and ranks all of her choices after preference round,
at some schools, Panhellenic will guarantee that she will be matched to one of those chapters. Panhellenics allow chapters to take a little more than actual quota in these cases because a woman who "played by the rules" not being placed is worse than new member classes not being EXACTLY the same size. If These extra new members are quota additions. No one will know who the quota additions in the new member class are.
ETA: Some schools have a separate quota for freshmen and non-freshmen, but most have quota as all classes together.
