Exactly - it all depends upon the school. And upon the individual chapter at that school.
In my chapter at my school, we most likely would have been willing to take an upperclassman...if she seemed to be an otherwise good fit for our chapter and if she seemed like she would be able to make a worthwhile contribution to the chapter for the duration of time she was active. However, there were a few chapters at my school where it would have been surprising to see an upperclassman taken.
If the chapter typically has spots available and the junior/senior transfer student wouldn't be "taking a spot" from a freshman or a sophomore, then I don't believe it would affect the sorority. If the chapter had more prospective PNMs than spots available to total, taking an upperclassman could potentially affect the chapter - in that you'd be giving a spot to someone who might only give 1 or 2 years to the chapter, instead of giving the spot to someone who could potentially have 3-4 years to contribute. This is why the answer to your question depends heavily upon the campus Greek culture.
