retention rates

by:    

How can you find retention rates of the different sororities? I want to be sure I don't end up somewhere where half the girls end up leaving?

Tridelts please stop embarrassing yourself. You retention rate is in the top 6 and you are not a top house.

IDK if you can find the actual retention rates, but you can look at the membership numbers on the grade reports to get an idea. Google "mizzou sorority community data"

Excuse me, I meant to say Retention Rate not Return Rate. Return Rate is a recruitment stat. Sorry y'all, it's been a busy week.

I tried looking at that chart, but what is an associate member? Some chapters seem to have a lot of those.

You can see that those are actually new members, joining that semester. For some reason the Spring 2024 report is callign them that instead of New Members.

some sororities have a program where girls can have reduced fees and involvement while they study abroad or have internships, etc. and those girls are included on associate members. the associate members section really doesn’t tell you much about retention because there’s no way to know how many girls are getting reduced involvement vs girls who were taken as spring bids.

I heard Tri Delt is churning through actives? Most seniors went alum and they had a bunch of last year pledges leave. Same with Alpha Phi? Cited not optimal sisterhood and maximum drama…Any one hear that?

I heard the exact same thing.

I've heard the same and that's why I'm worried. I feel like PHA is hiding that information. Should I wait for spring rush to get a better idea of where I belong? With the high numbers are they even doing spring rush.

curious pnm definitely don't drop and wait for spring rush. There is no guarantee that chapters will do it, and if they do the spots are very limited. PHA is not hiding information. Who knows, there could be some drama within a specific pledge class (i genuinely have no idea about tridelt) but that isn't going to mean your pledge class will be the same.

I posted the formula of how to find retention rates from the sorority community data reports. It was taken down within an hour. Somebody reported it and paid to have it taken down. Who wants to keep everyone ignorant of the truth?

Go to the reports for fall of one year and find Total members for a chapter, then go to the spring semester and find Active members. Active/Total is percent of retention. Average for all sororities is 89.9% for most current fall to spring. See how long this will stay up before someone pays to have it gone.

Yep. 63.2% retained. And then took 95 through COB (associate members) to end with 267. Remember that's only for one time period, you need to check a few years to see a trend. Also people graduate in December as well as May.

Top 5 retention rates fall to spring 23-24:

ChiO 97.8%
KD 97%
PiPhi 96.3%
Sk 95.1%
KKG 95%


Top 5 largest pledge classes fall 2023

Zeta 101
KD/Aphi 91
ChiO 85
Theta 82

Top 5 Active Members Spring 2023

KKG/ChiO 267
PiPhi 263
APhi 262
KD 260

This isn't opinion, this is math. All numbers were from the Mizzou community data online.

Can't wait for this to be taken down, I will just copy and paste again and again, keep paying GR.

^^^ Top 5 Active Members is for Spring 2024 not 2023

You don't actually seem to be very careful with numbers, you have made errors. People should look for themselves and not trust you on here.

this is true for some houses but not all! some chapters have a program where girls can partially disaffiliate while they go study abroad or work internships, etc. to decrease their dues and involvement. these members are not included on active members, and instead are grouped in with associate members alongside the new bids that were taken as cobs. although what you say is correct for some houses, for others there’s really no way to tell how many girls are temporarily disaffiliated vs how many have dropped.

Thank you for breaking down the
numbers. Very very helpful!

Ironically the ones with top retention rates were the ones that seemed to have more genuine sisterhoods. I guess that’s not a coincidence!

Correct taking pledge class way over Quota means you are having to keep up your membership by lots of Snap Bids, COB and Informal.

No clue what happened with Zeta last year, that’s weird, are they a newer sorority trying to grow or did they have massive defection?

alpha Phi is a disaster and pledges anyone they can and does tons of COB because of lack of retention.

The new members numbers provided are 100% correct and can be found on the community data sheet provided online by searching Mizzou community data. Google is an amazing tool.
