What she would like is not necessarily what the alumnae chapter, the collegiate chapter whose name you will bear (if this particular sorority doesn't have a special designation for AIs), the regional directors or the national council of the sorority would like.

Quite frankly, she should have sounded this out with all those people I mentioned above and given them a rundown on your life, accomplishments, background, yadda yadda before bringing it up to you, and seeing if any of the things you mentioned (like not pledging in college) would be a negative factor. Has she introduced you to any of her sisters? Has she asked you to any of the events they have?

I might be completely off base, but it almost sounds like she's at sea in an alum chapter full of unfamiliar women and wants someone in her corner.
