Hootie is correct - the 26 members of the NPC (National Panhellenic Conference) require that members attend the university at which the sorority is chartered. For example, I can't join AEPhi at Univ. of FL when I'm a student at FSU.
Although you say that none of the 3 groups on campus fit your style, you haven't said if you've actually gone through recruitment, continuous open bidding or otherwise gotten to know any members of these organizations. If you haven't done these things, how can you know if these groups don't fit your style?
The other suggestions are valid - you might want to talk to the Greek Life office about the possibility of adding a 4th chapter to the campus. However, if the existing 3 chapters are not full AND if there were little or none unplaced rushees at the end of last year's formal recruitment, the chances of adding a 4th chapter are probably going to be slim.
There are several posts regarding expansion on these boards - most of them have a reply from me in the thread. Use the search feature to find out more about the NPC expansion process.
