I don't know, I do have a sorority sister who joined after being released by AOII at a big SEC school. Apparently the CPC then allowed each chapter to pick up a couple more girls...must have been an early RFM thing. She suddenly was asked to join. AOII was why she went through recruitment as a sophomore, but she almost didn't accept the bid and is still a little bitter about it today because it felt like a slap in the face to her. She's a great sister and dedicated alumna, so I'm so glad she decided to accept the bid. I can see how hurt feelings could get in the way of someone taking a bid from a chapter where all your "friends" cut you the day before. If the rest of the story is true, she probably doesn't understand that her friends aren't the only say in who gets a bid.
