With respect to NIC/IFC organizations, if you are an initiated member, then you are a brother of that fraternity for life. As such, you would never pledge your fraternity again. However, some fraternities/chapters may have some sort of approval process before you may affiliate with the new chapter.
And for what it is worth, even if you affiliate with the new chapter, you may come to find out you do not feel as close a bond with the new chapter as you did with your previous chapter. So as DSTCHAOS suggested, it may behoove you to wait.
