Will pledging a Service Fraternity have any effect on sorority recruitment?

[KSUViolet06]

I know that Panhellenic sorority members are permitted to join service organizations (i.e. Alpha Phi Omega).

Now whether you can handle the time commitment of being part of both organizations is up to you and your time managment skills. I was part of a service org in addition to a sorority in undergrad, and it was quite time consuming, but not impossible.

Be aware that if you get a bid to a Panhellienic sorority, they most likely will require you to attend certain mandatory events, some of which may conflict with service organization events. So you'll need to be able to manage that.

Being a member of a service group shouldn't negatively affect your chances of getting a bid, but that really depends on the attitude of sorority members at your school. There were a few girls in sororities at my school who were also in service and/or academic interest organizations. I would think that most sororities have members who have multiple commitments (whether it be work, school stuff, etc).
