New members from COB go through formal pledging, and the already-pledged members (=from recruitment) attend that ceremony. So I don't see why pledged members from one chapter would not be allowed to attend FP at another chapter.

What would be more meaningful, though, if the new initiates would go to the crosstown chapter's initiation. I was home on break several weeks after my initiation and went to initiation at a nearby chapter. It made a tremendous (positive!) impression. A post-initiation review is helpful ("this is what you heard, and what you said, and the mutual obligation"). But it takes a couple of times of being a spectator (or one of the ritual team) to really appreciate the beauty and the scope of the service.
