I was at UO in the late 90s, so this information may be out of date, but at least when I was a student, recruitment wasn't terribly competitive and most of the women going through received a bid if they maximized their options. I don't remember how many women went through recruitment, but quota was usually in the high twenties to low thirties - from what I've heard, it's been pretty steadily in the low 30s for the last few years. Most women live in the chapter houses for at least two years (usually their sophomore and junior years) but every chapter has different live-in requirements so that's something you may want to ask about if you go through recruitment. Greek life isn't huge on campus - I think about 10% of the student body is Greek? It's not a campus where being a sophomore is going to be a huge disadvantage - plenty of sophomores went through recruitment and received bids. I hope that helps!
