Membership selection is an area where the collegiate members really hold a great deal of power. As long as they follow the rules and procedures, there is nothing anyone can really do about the decisions they make.

Judging from some of the posts I've read on here, that is sadly not always the case. And those rights also often decrease with the size/prestige of your chapter.
The only power some chapters can have is to treat the person like crap and ignore her after extending the bid and hope she quits. Which is why I think any chapter being forced to take anyone under any circumstance is a horrendous idea. Unless, of course, the woman pledging is only there for the doors XYZ letters will open in one or the other social circles she desires and could care less about sisterhood.
