The number is usually Total or the average current NPCs size, which ever is larger. So let's say that Total is 180 but the average chapter size is 190. They may shoot for 190 but they certainly do not have to do so.

New groups generally try to pledge up to "average campus size," which would be...oh...190??

I'm guessing that they would want the colony to be about the same size as the average chapter size at Bama. This is how alot of sororities determine how many they will take on for a colony. For example, if the average chapter at Bama has 180 girls, then that's about how many they would like to take for their colony.
Also, colonies generally like to take on a mix of class standings. They are going to want some freshmen, but the colony isn't going to be ALL freshmen. There are going to be some upperclassmen as well.

I believe total is 180 so they will be able to fill to total.

I'm always surprised whenever I see a gal from Hawaii on a 'Bama bid list.
There was one last year (can't remember where she pledged) who came from a HS in my neighborhood. The gal who went ADPi this year went to my alma mater's sister school. Congrats to her and to ADPi! She'll have a bunch of alum sisters to get a hold of when she comes home!

Or possibly average chapter size, whichever is greater.

Alpha Phi's ELCs have created a blog where they have a calendar of recruitment events.

It also must be said, in case people don't know or haven't looked @ the APhi Bama website, but all the PNMs that are looking to join Alpha Phi will need recs.
