OP said she went to the first round to make sure she felt right about withdrawing from formal and trying out the colony, so there wasn't a chance for her to be invited back multiple times. I didn't go to a school with a typical recruitment setup with rounds and whatnot but from what I have read here on GC, it sounds like that was a smart decision. Meet with the chapters again since it is a new year, new women, etc., and possibly a "better" outcome.
Hopefully there will be a chance during her interview where she can explain why she went through recruitment last year, accepted a bid and then quit before initiation. Which is what a lot of posters here on GC suggest to do even if a PNM receives a bid from a chapter they are less than thrilled about .. because perceptions can change once you're a part of it. In OP's case, her perceptions didn't change so she decided to leave which is better than just going through initiation and leaving later on, in my opinion.
Good luck to you xoStarr but like the other posters have stated, just because there is a new colony on your campus doesn't mean they will take just anybody. They, like the established chapters, want the cream of the crop and those they feel will best serve their organization. It is not a guaranteed bid. Be yourself and hopefully you'll end up where you're meant to be =)
