Definitely get recs. It's competitive at Vandy, but in a different way than at other SEC schools. (i.e., you won't be fighting the battle of everyone from X city is in ABC sorority) However, the student population at Vanderbilt is very accomplished as a whole, and from what I understand about their current financial aid situation via their endowment, it's going to become increasingly competitive to gain entrance.
You can definitely have a social life without being Greek. Nashville has a ton going on.
I was just on Vandy's campus today. It's a fabulous school. I didn't go there, but everyone that I know who attended/attends there loves it. I can't recommend it enough.
