1. how long does it usally take for apporaval.
Currently it can take up to about a week and a half to two weeks tops for chapters to be approved with all the work the online team is doing right now.

2. how do I get people to join
There's quite a few way you can do this. First, I recommend putting a link to your chapter in your signature. That always helps. Secondly, visit the public forums such as this one and the Underground often, to get yourself known around the column. If membership is slow going, you may want to post an ad on the Seventh Column main page; you can find it by clicking on the "Explore our Commuinity" under the community tab on the bottom bar.
On another note, people really don't appreciate people sending them personal messages about joining chapters. If you have a friend or know someone, that's probably a good way to get them to join, however. If you are going to resort to PMing, please create respectable, readable messages when doing so. But do make this a last resort.
Other than that, if you do a good job with your chapter, members should really begin to come on their own. Good luck!
