.....and if the house wanted chose to pledge him then there really shouldn't be any reason why they couldn't just hold him over till the next semester without making him completely depledge.

If he's worth it and he really wants to be part of your house, he'll be there in the spring. Just keep in contact with him and make him feel welcome. Let him know that you guys are understanding and if it's for him you'll be there.
The OP posted 4 posts seeking advice. Three of those posts were identical and were posted at about the same time (in different forums) about an hour before he was to meet with the pledge. The fourth post was a brief "thank you" thirty minutes later. All four were posted over a week ago.
I doubt any advice at this point is anything more than academic.
