I see often chapters get way over Quota. Are people including new members from COB? Or do these schools not follow the rules for Quota Additions/Snap Bidding?

A chapter that is not at total can extend bids to eligible women up to total, even if the chapter matched quota in formal recruitment, had quota additions and offered snap bids. Eligible women could include women who participated in formal recruitment that did not ISP but were not matched, went to one or more pref parties but did not sign a preference card, dropped out during earlier rounds of recruitment, or who never participated in formal recruitment at all.

I don't really think there are quota addition rules to break, in regards to a chapter going "way over" Quota. The RFM Specialist and Greek Advisor consider many things when placing the quota additions, including chapter size, retention, and recruitment strength (and of course PNM preference). So, I don't think it's an issue of the school not following rules, unless I'm misunderstanding your question.

That's the only "way over" that I see nearby (not going back over the entire thread). If there are ones you have questions about - call 'em out, please, rather than halfheartedly slinging mud.

How was my question slinging mud at anyone? I just want to better understand the process and was asking for people to clarify.
I was under the impression that no group may exceed quota by more than 5% of Quota. Also snap bidding is not intended to fill spaces in the chapter Total but only to reach quota.

The 5% rule has been lifted. The numbers you see sometimes include Snap bids and Quota additions to bring groups up to Campus Total. These all get called "Quota Additions" by convention because people just don't advertise Snaps.

Thanks for clarifying... when was the 5% lifted? Do you happen to know why it was changed?

If you want an examples here is one. With my understanding of quota additions if you look at
Auburn University Quota was 57 and Theta had 74 which is 29% of quota.
Here is my question again... does that include cob? is my understanding of quota additions wrong? does this campus do something different? are there exceptions?

While we won't finish recruitment until January, Fall Parties begin tonight. There was an unexpected surge of late registrants, and there are about 770 women going through parties tonight. That translates to roughly 97 PNMs + the sisters in our rooms. It's going to be crazy.
