You will get your first choice if you are on their first bid list.

This is Kappa Alpha Theta's 2nd year of regular rush - they recolonized after being away from Auburn for a few years. They were below the overall limit so they can take more than quota.

if you put them first and you are on their first bid list, you are NOT a QA, you match. That's how a match is made.

They actually had the largest chapter last year, so I'm pretty sure they weren't below total. I think this is the 3rd year of rush since recolonizing, but I could be wrong. I know that they had large numbers at each of their pref parties, so apparently they were getting higher rates of return than were anticipated by RFM. But you guys know a lot more about this stuff than I do.

Apparently they are very pleased not only with the quantity but also with the quality of the girls they ended up with.

It's all the PNMs reading GC and sticking with the process.

This is what I had heard too, so was surprised that now they have a pledge class 50% larger than everyone else. Where to put all these people? So excited for them to have such a fun problem!

Yes, they colonized Spring '09, so this is their 3rd formal recruitment. Those that were freshmen when they colonized would now be seniors, so there may be a healthy chunk of members graduating this year. IIRC, interest in the colony was predominately freshmen.

Congrats to your daughter, the Auburn Thetas, and all the groups on campus. Another successful recruitment.
