To the OP: I would just go with the flow, if joining this particular sorority through AI is something you are interested in, because as others mentioned, it is a long process.

To everyone else: remember we aren't getting the whole story. We don't know exactly what the OP's friend has and hasn't done. Whatever your individual feelings are on AI, I'm sure if there was someone you were good friends with and you felt they were "worthy" of being a member of your given chapter, you would do some of the leg work.
One thing to also remember is that not a lot of alums, know about AI. In my sorority alone, not alot know about it. The truly 'active' alums know a bit about it. I know a bit more because I went to an AI training at a convention. This isn't to say all do.
The reality is we really don't much of the situation, other than what the OP has divulged, which hasn't been alot (which to the OP, I think is the best).

But that's what she said in her last post - that she WOULDN'T be a member of her friend's chapter because her friend is several hours away. I, too, am hoping that her friend has taken care of all the things I'm bringing up before just throwing her into the maelstrom.

That has absolutely nothing to do with what I'm saying (her friend living hours away).

What I was saying is that we don't know the whole situation, we don't know what the friend has or hasn't done. Only the OP and the friend know this.
