Because owning and running a small business takes a LOT of time, more so than even a varsity sport I might argue. My little brother owns his own business and is looking to expand, and it is easily a full-time job for him. As much as I want him to go Greek at the school he's transferring to I seriously doubt he will have the time. A business can't be put on hold for sorority events, and if sorority members think a PNM won't have enough time to commit to the sorority then they won't give her a bid, plain and simple.
Also OP you should probably delete your comments from the reddit thread you made in /r/sororities where we gave you the same advice you got here. If you were hoping to get more optimistic answers from us here you were sorely mistaken.
