In my local, each pledge class got letters at initiation. We were allowed to wear the letters while pledging, but we got our "official" letter shirts, in our sorority colors, at initiation.
Like my sister AEPhiSierra said, AEPhi does not permit anyone but initiated sisters to wear letters. Often, big sisters would present their littles with their first letters right after initiation. It's not so much that new members have to "earn their letters" - more that when they are initiated and learn the meaning of the letters they can now wear, it's that much more meaningful. In the meantime, we give them plenty of bid day and event shirts (with the letters spelled out) so they can represent the sorority they're joining.
