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.

Like others have said, we don't have the full story here, but keep in mind that each organization that does AI has its own process. Because the OP's friend approached her about AI, her process may be different than that of someone who initiated her own AI process by cold-calling a sorority's national office or alumnae chapter.
