Almost? Just curious, which fraternity or sorority don't allow the chapter a vote? For Alpha Phi Omega, I've seen everything from chapters that flat don't allow transferring in to chapters that make sure the potential transfer goes through the chapter history part of the pledge program to those that don't have much more than having the potential transfer introduce themselves at Business meetings...

Not every organization allows chapters a vote. You transfer your membership through NHQ/IHQ and that's that. Whether the chapter likes you and accepts you is a different story but your membership is still officially transferred
