Are things such as your hobbies, extra-curricular activities, likes and dislikes important?
and:
If the GLO has "free-standing undergrad chapters" (like a lot of the GLOs in the NYC area.) How do you select the chapter that is right for you, or rather, chapter that you are right for?

This depends on what is most important to you. Some choose an organization because they admire and are inspired by their legacy as a whole (mission, service, values, history) and for some, fitting in with the members on their campus and how they present themselves and represent their organizations are most important. However, if looking into an NPHC organization, consider that you will not be joining just the chapter but the whole organization and membership extends long beyond college.
Oh and what's a "free standing undergrad chapter"? That's a new one for me.
