Why work hard for something you are not even going to be part of
I agree with Sisterzip. Find someone in the frat that you trust thats been in it for a while and have a talk to them about your worries and reasons first. I've never been in a frat/sorority before (plan on joining a service sorority when I go on exchange next year though) though I have been in a lot of similar things before. I reccomend that you at least give yourself and them a chance, since as the semester progresses you will find that you will have more free-time and energy than you presently think that you have. Assuming that you are a freshman, you will soon find out that after you get through the first 6-8 weeks things start to settle down some because by then you should have settled in to your new routine and your lecturers should have settled down with the work some.

I'd still give them a shot and talk to a senior member that you trust first, though thats your decision.
