University of Texas Recruitment August 21-28, 2012

The final number we have heard is 1178 PNMs! That is 70 more than last year of 1078. Quota last year was 58 and based on RFM that would mean 754 freshman attended pref parties. (UT has a separate upperclassman quota and we do not have those numbers as of yet) Based off of those numbers, then quota this year would be around 61.

I think UT has done a good job about educating girls to stick it out. Personally, I am hoping to see the "drop" percentage be lower this year...hopefully no more than 18-22%. If that was the case then quota would be 68-70. Many houses took QAs last year also, one chapter having a NMC of over 70. With all the discussion of RFM and QAs on the boards right now, who knows what will happen.

Ladybugmom....I tried to answer you and your mailbox is full.

One chapter matched 92 and another 81. Every other chapter was 70 or below.

I think this is great news, I have always been so sad to hear of the girls dropping out at UT.
Good luck to all this week!
