Redraidergirl,
Your first step is to talk to the Greek Advisor, or similar position, at your school. That way you will know what your options are. Be prepared to answer a few questions. For example, have you participated in sorority recruitment? What are your reasons for bringing a new chapter to campus?
If the Proper Authority agrees to a new colony, a letter will be sent to NPC announcing the opportunity. (A university letter would also need to be sent to the non-NPC HQ if your selected organization is non-NPC. It shows university support for a new group.) NPC will announce it to their members and those interested will send in packets. The packets are narrowed and groups are invited to present their organizations. After the presentations, one group is selected to colonize. If specific NPC groups are in mind, the announcement still goes out to all NPC members but only those requested may respond.
The requirements for colony status vary from organization to organization. A colony will receive its charter after it has completed all of the requirements. The minimum that I have seen is 8 weeks but some I have seen are as long as 2 years. It just depends on the colony’s motivation and the sorority’s procedures.
Good luck to you!
