I had three PNMs (at different schools) one year who were in that situation. All three were dropped after second round by every chapter except the one their bio sisters were members of.
I have long noticed that bio sisters on the same campus usually pledge the same sorority. For years, I assumed it was family thing, but now I wonder. Does the younger sister pledge because it's the sorority she truly wants, or is it because she wasn't given any other options? Hmmmm....

I was in that situation. I technically wasn't given a choice since everyone cut me after I asked them all if they knew my sister the AOII (PNMs, don't do that.) But, depending on how close the sisters are in age, there may be a feeling of loyalty to the sister that supersedes the process. I honestly would have felt really weird being in another sorority than my sister. Do I think I would have been given a chance at another group had I not given them the impression I was all in at AOII? Sure... My campus LOVED to poach other groups legacies! I think it is really hard to draw conclusions without talking to the girls about their experiences.
