If women are offering to write them, they may have their own schedule (or their group does) so it really isn't up to you, and often GPA on a rec will be cross referenced or checked, as the schools do that. Furthermore as a transfer student, your transcript may not show up and be evaluated before recruitment.
Second, many schools do not compute GPA for summer courses until after recruitment has started. I know this is the case as it is true for my school. What you should do is contact your Greek Life Office (or whoever coordinated recruitment) and see when they check grades for recruitment and pass that information on to the chapters. If you're taking a summer course at the school you want to join a sorority you can find out when grades are computed into your GPA. If you're taking it at your first school you definitely want to get that transcript ordered as I know some schools will not let you enroll, let alone rush, without all of your transcripts received by the appropriate office.
