RFM = "release figure methodology"
RFM sets different release numbers for different groups at each stage of recruitment. Strong recruiting chapters have to cut more women then weak recruiting chapters. The goal is to have every group get quota. This slideshow explains more:

QA = "quota additions" If a potential new member attends every party to which she receives an invitation and she lists every chapter at which she attends preference parties on her bid card, she is guaranteed a bid on some campuses. If she does not match on the first set of bid lists, she will be added to a bid list as a quota addition. This means that a chapter with a full bid list will take quota plus. Different schools decide on where to put the QAs in different ways.
