Not all of the officers, though. Only the top six, I guess. Like, president, vps, standards chair, treasurer..
Rush is fairly competitive. Not like some of the other SEC schools, but not where everyone gets a bid. Most of the chapters do not require rec letters, but I have heard at least one does. It's always good to have recs, though. The "top" chapters are very competitive to get into, but if you walk around the vandy campus, you'll realize that pretty much everyone is pretty lol.
It's definitely possible to have a social life without being in a sorority. If a lot of your friends end up being in them, though, you will feel left out.
As long as you have decent grades and present yourself well, you should be able to find a chapter that you fit in to.
