Regardless of what is says on Ariesrising site (a great site) you need to contact Inter/National Headquarters to get the ball rolling, to have someone email an AC president out of the blue could be viewed a rather off-putting.

I usually don't say this, but I now think I am starting to believe it and this is not lip-service: AI IS NOT COMMON by any stretch of the imagination, many ACs may not be familiar with the process or they just don't do it at all. I really don't believe that GC portrays AI as common, but some people may see it that way. YOU NEED to start with I/NHQ, get some information and they will help you in the process. Some groups maybe more open to AI, than others, but within that, it all depends on the AC, because they will be the ones who will be sponsoring you.

It is great that you are looking at collegiate sites, but you will not have as much contact with them as the AC, that is where you will be spending most of your time with, unless you get involved in an advisory roll of some sort. Don't concentrate on the collegiate chapter, focus on the AC. If the group that you are interested in, sends you contact information to the local AC or they send your contact information to the local AC, it is up to them to see whether they are interested in AI.

I hope that helps clear a few things up for you, also regarding PMing some AIs from a group on this board, some may respond and some may not respond, just so you are aware.

[edit to clear my statement up: what I mean in the above, we know that AI is not common, but I am starting to believe that GC may give the preception that it is common]
