Sigma and Phi Mu. SK got 105 girls so I don't think they will, Zeta did solid, I don't think they will and KD probably won't either.

SK probably still will COB. Speaking as an ex SK, we tended to lose a lot of older members, making the overall number low.

Why is an ex SK on here? Get a life, your house did fine without you.

Zeta will probably cob in the spring. They tend to lose a lot of girls at semester kicked out for grades, or just girls that can't tough it out

Any chapter that is below Campus Total is eligible to COB. Total was just re-set yesterday to 309 (which is average chapter size). So, any chapter that is below 309 after formal recruitment can COB up to 309. No matter how many they took during formal recruitment, if they are below 309 they are eligible to COB. Doesn't mean they will - but they can.

Are you stupid? The 270 counted the seniors who graduated in the spring too

I'm lost if quota is reset at 309, how can SK have 270 + 105 pledges? thats 375!! That would be the largest chapter ever.

You can take more than quota through quota additions which could place you over total.

SK only graduated like fifteen seniors and maybe twenty girls dropped over the whole year. SK will have the largest house this year and then after they graduate their first full senior class, they'll have the same number as the rest of the houses. Why is this hard to understand?

What are the chances of AXO, DG or APhi doing COB?

By: Hm

Both aphi and DG cobed last year. DG I think took 13 girls, not sure how many aphi took. I don't remember axo cobing last year but if they have room they will. It's much harder to cob the mid tier houses here because of limited spots so I wouldn't put all my eggs in one basket. Also, the mid tier houses are only likely to take friends of girls in house that are recommended, so it's not really "open" rush. They most likely will get names from girls that live in house and invite them to a social quietly. So my advice to you is to get to know as many girls in those houses as you can! Good luck

Sigma and Phi Mu usually do an open rush. They usually table and you can sign up to get information and show up to events. For SK, you have to know a girl in the house to get an invite and they have a sort of "mini recruitment" where you go to events during the week and then a pref event if they invite you back for that.

Alpha Phi and DG only take like, ten girls when they do COB and I have no clue how the process works.

I've heard when top tier/upper middle tier houses COB, you have to know several girls in the house and they don't even have events, they just extend a bid.

Every house usually only takes the exact number of spots open.

Not sure this list is accurate. How was Adpi allowed to COB last semester if they had the highest total chapter count (292) in the spring according to the grades report on Mizzou's Greek Life site?

I'm pretty sure Adpi didn't COB. I know they did spring 2013, but I don't think they did this past spring
