Agreed. Think about your own recruitment and new member programs. You can do all of the research that you want about a chapter, and you can be informed going in, but if that chapter doesn't extend you an invitation, you won't be a part of that group. Essentially, chapters have a couple months to truly get to know those girls wanting to be a member of their organization. During the new member process, a new member can still be voted out. This is a "trial period" to get to know these new girls, and to see how they will be as sisters.

I don't necessarily think that the person HAS to work closely with the chapter, but I think that there should be at least be some general interest in what the sorority is about. It shouldn't be "I want to become a member, where do I sign up?" There should be selfless acts and a genuine interest that eventually amount to an invitation being presented by a member of the sorority.
