It really does depend on the campus. That being said, I've not yet had the privilege to meet someone else in a similar situation as I was. I was 23, a navy vet, when I helped colonize AXiD on my campus, which at the time, only had 1 other sorority. Would a 23 year old navy vet have the same shot at joining my chapter today? Realistically, maybe, but probably not. The culture has changed. I'm thankful for the experience I had because I know it was unique.... There's NO WAY I could have ever become a member at a more competitive university. Not to mention that I was completely against the idea of joining a sorority and conforming to rules and structure after I had just finished doing that in the navy. That's why the colony appealed to me so much - I didn't have to follow someone else's rules and traditions - I got to help start them.
Benzgirl hit the nail on the head though.....

Chapter is not a baby sitting service, your hubby can't attend initiation and there are dues and a badge to purchase.

So, if being married is going to prevent you from being a committed member who can actually come to chapter events, then don't bother....
