I agree with what Clemsongirl and DBB posted. In part this is so people don't go to a less competitive school, join a chapter then transfer to Bama or Ole Miss. Like DBB said it's the intent behind the transfer. Do they want to be a sister or do they just want the prestige that a chapter has on a certain campus?
I also think it might vary regionally and if the chapters have any relationship. For instance Oregon and Oregon State have a close knit relationship and do things together multiple times a year. Since they know the other chapter transferring isn't a big deal. On the other hand if you are transferring from a liberal San Francisco school to a conservative school on the East coast, there might be some question about compatibility and the chapter may need to meet the sister first. It doesn't mean anyone is less of a sister just the idea of how people mesh. Also just because they don't affiliate doesn't mean they aren't a sister, they most likely (can't speak for all organizations) are now an alumna.
