A lot to read so I'll give a quick comment- if you are only there for as an exchange student for one year, yes that could hurt your chances. Even at my school which was not very competitive, we would've thought twice about extending a bid to someone who wouldn't be around for very long. You would essentially be treated like a senior in that regards- seniors can but do not frequently receive bids unless they have a lot to offer the group. They aren't out to ensure you have the most typical American college experience, they are looking for women who they want to call sisters and will influence the direction of the chapter. It's hard (though not impossible) to do that in less than one year, especially when also adjusting to a new country, new school, new customs, etc. You may want to reach out to the Greek life office and/or the school's exchange program liaison to ask some of these questions, although you may or may not get a response considering you've waited until they're on summer break to reaise these.

Regarding whether your nationality will affect your chances, there are a lot of threads on that topic. Search is your friend.
