I think AST has a clause, and I'm not sure if other groups do, where you have have an 'honorary' sister. This would be a woman who first attendend College X, rushed and initiated into XYZ. She then decides to transfer to College Y where there is no chapter of her national. The AST chapter can invite her to attend chapter and all non-ritual sorority events. I think she would pay local dues, the only thing is that she does not get to vote or get to be at ritual. I would liken it to social membership. I only have a rough understanding of how it works, but it may be worth seeing if this is an option for you. I'm not sure how common it is.

I know you feel like with the new sorority you won't share the same things as your sisters, but remember that you still have the local experience. You don't need to give up your friends just because they couldn't go XYZ.

Good Luck. I hope this helps. Feel free to pm me if you have questions.

I don't want to get your hopes up because I have no idea how this works or if it is an option for other sororities.
