do you look and act as old as most people in your grade? if so, i think you'll be fine. i don't think rush forms usually ask your age. birthdate, maybe, but i doubt anyone would pay close enough attention to your forms to figure out that you just turned 17. and even if they do know, i don't see how it would matter, as long as you behave like a normal college freshman (which i'm sure you will). i don't think there are rules against pledging 17-yr. olds.
in fact, i bet the sororities will have no clue, unless you choose to bring your age up. i'd say probably don't mention it--if they aren't worried, don't give them something to worry about.
