A quota addition happens when a girl puts all the chapters she preffed on her bid card and still doesn't end up with a bid before all the chapters make quota. This is done so that a PNM who maximizes her options and holds up her end of the bargain isn't penalized.
If a PNM is added as a quota addition, then every chapter she preffed must have made quota. A chapter that didn't make quota isn't being penalized b/c that PNM didn't pref them - that chapter wasn't an option for her during bid matching.
Example -
Chapters ABC, DEF, and GHI all made quota.
Chapter XYZ did not.
Polly PNM prefs at ABC, DEF, and GHI, and ranks them all on her bid card. She will get a bid to one of those 3 sororities - whether through the regular bid matching process, or if those 3 sororities fill up, she'll be added to one as a quota addition.
Chapter XYZ doesn't come into play b/c she didn't pref there, so its not a possibility for Polly. (Maybe XYZ cut Polly after 2nd round, etc.)
