I think it may depend on how "different" her speech is. If she is pretty functional (and comfortable) in the hearing/speaking world, it probably won't affect her chances of getting a bid too much. However, if she prefers to sign, that may be a problem.
For the record, one of the girls in my dorm my first year in college was mostly deaf and she ended up going through informal rush. Her speech was definitely different from a hearing person's (there were certain letters she missed, et cetera) but she had no trouble communicating with people. While she ended up not joining a group, I know that my chapter would have been happy to have her, and I'm sure some of the other ones would have too.
