Even if you meet with someone, it will still be an info-only rec. That person doesn't know you like someone who has been involved with your life would. Any rec may help keep you with some chapters for an extra round, depending on the school, individual chapters etc. but it will not be something that will change things significantly on its own.

Do you have a superb GPA now? Have you formed real and meaningful friendships with sorority women? Have you been ultra involved in campus since your last recruitment? Have you significantly improved your appearance or conversation skills if those were lacking last time? These are the things that can possibly impact your re-rushing experience as a sophomore.
It's the internet. You can be a discouraging meanie if you want . Kidding, I really do appreciate the help.

I suppose even if a info rec letter will help a little I should try it. My gpa is great but it was last year as well. I am friends with a few sorority women, but its a large school so i'm not sure if that can help me at all. I feel more confident around new people now after going to a MUCH bigger school than my high school, maybe that will help. My appearence has changed a little, whether it's good or bad i'm not sure. Oh and another thing is that there is a new sorority at my campus this year and I'm hoping that I could have a better chance there.

Thanks!
