University of South Carolina

I'm just curious. Does anyone know what quota ended up being for USC? I heard that our Beta Epsilon chapter pledged 111, but surely that has to be a typo. Otherwise, wow, there were A LOT of ladies at recruitment this year!

Nope that number is correct. My daughter was on the recruitment team and they were predicting 125. Historically, they have guaranteed bids if you attend Pref. This year they did not. Apparently girls were given bad information about the AGD colony from Panhellenic and they thought they had to go thru formal recruitment.
I believe the South Carolina chapter is one of the largest for ADPi. Arkansas or Alabama may be the largest. ETA Bama ADPi took 109 and Ark ADPi took 146.


I think quota was 111. Last year quota was 108 and in 2010 it as 86. AGD is definitely coming at just the right time.

Quota was 97 freshmen and 14 upperclass for a total of 111.

1,377 PNMs registered for recruitment and there are 10 chapters, with an 11th colonizing this fall.

Results so far:
ADPi 111
DZ 112
KKG 114
XO 113

I believe I saw on a link to Gamma Phi Beta results that they matched 88. I heard that Phi Mu made quota but not sure what their final number was. I also heard that Tri Delta had quota. Haven't heard any numbers though for Zeta, KD, or Alpha Chi Omega.

Was the Gamma Phi Beta 88 at Southern Cal or South Carolina? I have 88 at both in my notes from GC posts.

The thread for Gamma Phi Beta results was all broken down by State and then by school so it was definitely South Carolina.

PTKKK,

I do not know the exact number yet, but I think Tri Delta took quota or above. Last year quota was 108 and DDD took 109.

Chapters are posting on our national site. I will post the number when it becomes available.

Not sure what their numbers were for sure - just posted what I heard and didn't have a number. I'm sure a Tri Delta can confirm the final info.

I think this is an error in the Gamma Phi Beta thread. The USC that took 88 is Southern Cal.

Could be - I don't keep up with Southern Cal but I know on this board when USC is mentioned everyone asks for the clarification about which school!

I haven't been able to find any numbers for Southern Cal yet, so the USC with 88 new members was South Carolina. However, I got the numbers from a bid day new member class photo and did seem to miscount - it seems like they have 95 or 96 new members, and it is possible that some were not in the photo.

Sorry for the confusion!
