I guess it just all depends on what the student population is like! I do want to point out that my sorority, Omega Phi Alpha, absorbed one of Penn State's locals, Theta Alpha Pi, so they are now our Alpha Theta chapter, named that in honor of their history!
Good luck and have fun with prefs!

For the most part, in the Northeast, you'll find more chapters with fewer members each.

I kind of prefer it that way. It would blow my mind to have 250 sisters, and see girls on a regular basis wearing my letters, and not even know their name.

yeah, at Arizona State each sorority has around 100, at least I believe that's their cap...but its like, can you really call each girl your sister...you really will only really get to know a few of them!
Before finding OPA, Delta Zeta was colonizing, and they ended up taking 93 girls (I wasn't one of them, but I tried!) but I realized after that there was no way I could really get to know that many girls, and remember who they all were!

I second that. My school has 8 sororities and we have about 80 members each, give or take a few. It's not really possible to know *everyone*, but it's a much smaller, closer community. I wouldn't be able to handle a chapter of 250!

We have seven social sororities on my school's campus, with membership ranging from 71 (last semester's total) to 8...so even though the organizations at or close to total have a small membership when looked at on a grand scale, within the campus community they seem huge!

I know it sounds strange, but it really isn't that hard to get to know everyone in a large chapter!
