She just can't be a quota addition at the time of bid matching.
Ok. But why would someone who ISP not be able to be a QA? What if they were the "next" on the list?

Because she didn't maximize her options.

If she only lists one, she has to be on the regular bid matching list. Remember if the group really wanted her to be in their new member class, they could place her number one on their list. If she's on the second or third list, they want her, but she's extra if they get their first choices.

She CAN'T be a quota addition if she ISP because by the very definition of who gets them, she wouldn't have maximized her options. The big risk of ISPing is that you limit yourself to only getting one group through regular bid matching. It should only be used by girls who know they want that one choice or nothing.

Again, I understand that from your perpective, it seems like a system that matched everyone to her first choice is desirable, but that's not how the system works. NPC policies are designed to keep the groups relatively the same size.

If all a girl had to do was get to prefs, and then she was guaranteed a bid to her first choice even if she only listed them, it would be a big problem in terms of some groups tripling in size while others got few new members. It would throw the idea of quota out the window.

MamaDawg, you've got the Pointer linked, which is a really helpful reference, but I think they wanted the National Panhellenic Conference handbook that's called the green book.
