But why is age such a huge issue? I'm still a freshman, if they're concerned with how long I'd be able to serve the chapter?

Chapters might be concerned because you are already 3 years older than the typical freshman and would be 25 as a senior. Chances are your tolerance meter for dealing with 18 year old women and men would be in overdrive by then. It really varies by campus, and I don't have the energy to investigate where PBPhi is colonizing this year. On a traditional campus PNM age can be an issue. On commuter and less trad schools, prob not much of an issue.
Greek life telling you sophs, jrs and srs can rush doesn't tell you what your realistic chances are... just that you can sign up. It's like the girl with the 2.8 HS average. Can she register? Yes. Will she get a bid? Maybe, but it will probably be quite limited opportunities. Colonies are unique experiences. You should at least investigate. Legacies don't carry as much weight anymore, especially from further up the line.
