Find out from the company you are ordering from when the last date to give them a number is first. Then have your Membership Chair or Advisor call Panhellenic to see if numbers are similar to last year at this point (a good indicator if there will be about the same number of women going through recruitment). If it is looking the same you can plan for the same number that quota was last year + the number of ALL women returning to the chapter + 5.
It is unusual for quota to go up more than 5 or 10 between one year and the next unless something major happened (lost a chapter, PH did much better PR so recruitment numbers are way up, using the new release figure method etc.).
As was said previously - don't forget your Rho Gams (or whatever your school calls them) and your PH exec members and or Delegates (basically anyone that is not with the chapter for recruitment b/c they are working with PH). It's always better to have to many than to few - you can always sell them to NM's or give them to alumnae that come to help.
