I know that when women pledge D Phi E, and then transfer, they are offered two options. 1) Join the new chapter if one exists on the campus they are transferring to or 2) go alumnae. I've never heard of such an absurd thing as voting to see if an initiated sister can join a chapter. How offensive to an initiated member!! But the scenario that you lay out is perfectly possible and probably does happen. Someone from one of those schools could tell us if this voting happens or not.
