I always tell people to approach it as you would a job interview and present yourself with your best foot forward.
I'm at UBC, and we've had quite a few alternative looking girls find homes in sororities. I'm not sure what the campus is like at UWO in general, but on the West Coast it's not so unusual.
Bottom line, you won't know until you try, and even if you don't find a home in a sorority or decide you don't want to find one, you've at least met a ton of people on campus in a short amount of time.

Jen, THANK YOU for your helpful reply!
Here there is a HUGE music scene of electronica, dance and punk, so pretty much half of the students are alternative. I just haven't recalled seeing them around/in sororities... one of the frats though, hosts parties with special guests like MSTRKRFT, Steve Aoki and Crookers all the time. I talked to some of the houses today (it's Greek Week here) and they were pretty awesome and were like "Go for it!"
I plan on treating it like an interview except a little more fun, and I'm getting pretty psyched!
