My daughter will be a PNM going through IU Recruitment this year. We have everything ready - recs were sent in the fall, outfits are ready, talking points all set. It's been a long wait but she is eager to get back to campus and get on with it!

This year, the quota set is 55/house, so not quite RFM, but not quite bed quota either. Some report as many as 1900 have registered, which is about normal for IU.

We are hopeful she will find her place - she is doing a great job keeping an open mind!

I will try to keep you all updated with what I learn!

Quota at 55 per house is better, but not perfect. That's 1430 bids available with 1900 registered.

Hopefully, after they do this for awhile and see that it is okay, they will move to RFM.

Baby steps....

The 55 number is a minimum, there are chapters who will offer more than 55 bids. I have heard that quite a few chapters will offer 60+. Also, with 1900 registered, not all will begin the process. Some PNMs will not make grades, some will decide not to come back early, etc. I believe that approximately 1650 started the process last year with about the same number registered.

It is not 1900 registered. It's between 1600-1700. Trust me on this

55 is the minimum number of bids. chapters could elect to offer more bids- but they had to submit their quota back in October, before registration was even closed.

And IU DOES use RFM. It's just each chapter has its own quota. Consider it like ole miss or Arkansas where return rates are set with a varied quota.
