This. It does indeed depend on the organization, but in most instances with which I'm familiar, it is
not automatic. The new chapter has to approve the transfer, which it might not do for a variety of reasons.
Besides, when you get to LSU, you may discover that you really don't click with the guys in the chapter in question. (As far as that goes, when you get to LSU-A, the guys in the colony there might decide they don't click with you and not offer you a bid.)

And this. If they know you're going to transfer, I'm not sure they'd want to give you a bid anyway. And if they don't know but realize after the fact that you intended to transfer all along, I'm guessing you won't be their favorite guy, which they may let their brothers at LSU know, leading to one of those reasons that the LSU chapter might not approve the transfer.
Wait until you get to LSU and then check out all of the fraternities with an open mind.
