Don't feel pressured one way or the other-there's no obligation on your part to affiliate!!
With affiliation, the most important thing to figure out is if you fit in with Theta on your new campus. Once you commit to that new chapter by by filling out the affiliation paperwork there's no backing out. You are expected to participate through graduation with that new chapter just like at your old campus. You can't go back to being an unaffiliated member.
This also means that if they have a facility on your new campus, you will be expected to live in that facility just like any other member.
As an adviser and fraternity officer, I've seen both successful affiliations, and ones gone awry, mostly because the affiliate didn't figure out until too late that the chapter wasn't right for her.
good luck with your decision!!
