And whether or not one has a social life has nothing to do with what you can offer a social sorority. You don't get a bid because you throw parties or have a ton of boyfriends or are at the bar 6 nights a week, at least you shouldn't. That is not what "social" means.

By junior year, I imagine most people would be able to self-motivate in terms of studying. Unless the OP is the type of person who does better under pressure, adding pledging to the load might be too much.

As far as having a social life - I never said that one needs to be partying or having "tons of boyfriends". The OP said that she has no social life, that she works, goes to school, and has a not-so-great GPA. Social means - to me - able to hang out and communicate with others. Does she have friends at all?

OP - people (ie. sororities) are looking to find out more about you. You must have interests, dreams, and hobbies? Think about what you might want to share during rush. Do you enjoy books? Movies? Sports? Do you work out? Sing? Any interests outside school and work?
