Because you only have one NPC organization on your campus, recruitment is done differently. If there are enough organizations on campus for it to be mutually beneficial for sororities to do so, they (often) use some sort of coordinated recruitment process. If it's COR then yes, you can just choose one organization of interest. If it's partially structured or formal recruitment, PNMs often do not have a choice in which houses to start with because they go to all of them, and often times the way they "avoid" going to certain houses, even later, is by dropping completely. It's called mutual selection.

I think this would be a prime opportunity to throw out the "Bitches need to maximize their options" line.
