A campus's local panhellenic can allow a non-NPC group to be full members, vote and hold office. This goes for non-NPC nationals and locals.
If you WANT to go NPC, that's fine...just don't let the school bully you, if that isn't what you want. There are other options. It just sounded from the tone of your previous posts that NPC was being pushed down your throat and you had a lot of concerns.
If you do choose an NPC group, yes they probably will expect you to get your numbers up to be competitive with the other NPC groups on campus before you are fully chartered. And I'll go so far as to say if they
don't, look out. They should also give you help with this, as Heather mentioned.
You should also be aware that the women who are currently members of the sorority may not automatically be slotted for exec board positions - they may want everyone to "start fresh" and not give preference to the original sorority members. This depends on the group. Also, your sisters might have to in effect rush again with the national group - that is, some women might not be chosen to become part of the national organization. Again, this depends on the group.
I don't mean to be Debbie Downer, but at a campus where NPC sororities are the size you mentioned they are, you need to really be careful of what you're doing.
