I understand that your Colony was shut down, but keep in mind that your membership in an organization like ours extends much further than your campus. You were initiated into an organization that spans the globe, and were entrusted with certain secrets that create a bond between you, me, and every other Brother, regardless of the chapter we were a part of. I'm genuinely sorry your undergraduate experience was a short-lived one, but the saying goes: "Once a Beta, Always a Beta, Everywhere a Beta."

When a Chapter (or Colony) is closed, all Active (initiated) members move to Alumni status in the eyes if the General Fraternity. You can try to resign your membership by contacting the Administrative Office in Oxford, but it isn't up to them to grant you permission to pledge another fraternity.
You're officially an Alumni member of your Colony's Roll, and the other fraternity you wish to pledge will have to be the one to grant you that right.

Feel free to reach out to me via PM if there's anything else I can do for you.

Yours in __kai__
