Quota Additions

Poster Message:
Quota addition pnm's are placed based on a few factors: how the pnm's ranked their two houses, the pnm's position on the two chapter's ranked bid lists, and the membership numbers of the two chapters. The houses with lower return rates must invite back larger numbers of pnm's at each round because they can't count on the pnm's ranking them high. So they dig deeper into their numbers and invite more. That is per RFM. This means more pnm's will end up at their pref, and there will be more pnm's than can match to quota, so they will need to be placed as quota additions. That's why more quota additions are always going to come from these pref houses. Quota additions are not for the chapter's sake but for the pnm's who ranked both pref houses to be able to get a bid. Houses with higher return rates will have fewer pnm's at every round and so fewer at pref, and will come closer to hitting quota, and have fewer pnm's left to be placed as quota additions. Taking a lot over quota means the chapter's return rates don't allow them to be as selective during recruitment.
