Then you really shouldn't be advising someone to do something you know very little about.
It's been said many times before on GC - AI is not a direct alternative to collegiate membership. As an alumnus initiate your fraternity experience is going to be very different than that of someone who joins as an undergraduate.

It's highly unlikely that I will pursue this route, and after more research, I have found some great organizations that really do focus on service to the community and welcome people of all ages.

This seems like a more productive use of your time.
