The old system had a set formula and assumes all chapters are equal:
Quota x number of events / by %return = number to invite
The new system uses algorithms, prior performance, number of women listing you #1 on preference card, etc. This forces higher cuts for more "popular" chapters during recruitment earlier in the process, thus allowing those women, who never really had a chance of making the cut for the "popular" chapter to explore their options a lot earlier in the process. Essentially the number of women receiving their #1 choice remains the same, but more women are matched and fewer drop out due to unmet expectations.
The new system is not mandatory yet, but it is going in that direction, so your campus may have already implemented it.
