Untrue. I think we've discussed this on the board before, and the rule is that the 13th chapter has to be at least two years old -- NOT that the youngest chapter has to be. A chapter could petition if they had, say, a 16th chapter that was only a week old, as long as their 13th chapter was at least two years old.
A more interesting question would be whether or not a sorority like Ceres or Phi Sigma Rho (who currently are close to meeting the criteria, or DO meet it) would be interesting in competing with the NPC sororities when they have a special focus. Something like this works in the NIC because of their more relaxed governing rules, but I don't know if it would fly in the NPC or NPHC.
