"Top houses" are not limited to the IFC or to "non interest" fraternities. Just saying.

I've never heard of that being a concern, outside of the IFC/NPC bubble.

But the OP has confirmed that it's not IFC, so we can run with that

I can second the "top" house term has been used outside of NPC/IFC. On my campus it wasn't "tiers" like it is with NPC/IFC but a top 1 chapter since there was not as many chapters.

Are these locals that follow an NPC- or IFC-type model?

If so, this is the first I'm hearing about "culturally based" aspirants worrying about getting to "the best" as opposed to the best for them.

This is very interesting to me.

No they are not locals and as far as I know they don't follow an NPC/IFC model. Maybe it is due to the fact that we have quite a few asian interest GLOs. To clarify I have only heard the term "top" chapter this with those GLOs.

This. Granted Greek Life isn't huge on my campus, but I've never seen a chapter who previously rejected a PNM later give them a bid the next time the PNM rushed.
