That is correct. That's what happened with my chapter, actually. When a local sorority or interest group wants to become a chapter of an NPC sorority, step 1 is to get the local Panhel's blessing (if a Panhel exists). Only after that can NPC be contacted. The local can express a preference for a particular NPC sorority, and I don't believe that preference can be overridden by the local Panhel.
Little E's school's situation is a little unusual in that there isn't a Panhel in the "traditional" NPC sense (since there's only one NPC sorority at the moment).
