i believe that auburn, alabama, georgia and texas hold 3 party prefs. too.

FSU and UF are both very good sources of information. I went to a school in FL and that is where we got assistance with NPC stuff if we needed it. As for my campus we also had 2 party pref, we had around the same amount of girls you have go through recruitment each year, but with only 5 sororities, for us 2 pref party worked.

What is your current party flow? e.g., the PNMs start with all houses #? then to to 6, 4, and finally 2?

Iowa State currently has 13 NPC chapters and two associate chapters. The two associate chapters are unhoused and do not participate in recruitment. When ISUKappa and I went to school there (97-01) the parties went 15-10-5-2. They now go 13-9-4-2. If from reading information correctly it looks like they're looking to change it to 13-9-6-3.
I would agree with the other posters about contacting the NPC Area Advisor for the state. What does the campus hope to gain from switching from 2 to three parties? Would more women match this way? Didn't 11/13 chapters take quota this past recruitment? IIRC, from what older women who I used to advise with told me, ISU used to have a three party pref night, but that was when there were 16 NPC chapters.
