So, it appears that none of the women who were extended bids should be available to pledge another group. It is a UA so it would take - I would think - agreement of all the groups to allow any of them - formally pledged or not - to be released to another group.

But I didn't find anything that applies to a chapter that closed.

This is something that changed between the 2009 edition of the MOI and the 2012 edition. From the 2009 edition (under The Panhellenic Compact)

8. Women who have been pledged but not yet initiated into a chapter whose charter has been rescinded or relinquished or of a colony that has been dissolved shall be eligible to pledge another NPC fraternity immediately following the official release by the NPC fraternity.

But this language is no where to be found in the 2012 edition.
