First question - Did you attend Greek Preview? The would have been a great place to get this question answered. The first thing you need to do is talk to your academic advisor as well as the Greek life office to see if there is anything you can work out or what they've done in the past. Just looking at the EFS schedule and knowing a little bit about UW recruitment, it is hard to see how you would work both, but you need to speak to the Greek life office and the advisor to see if there is a way around it.
I taught in HS in Washington for quite a while, so I have a passing familiarity with EFS. As I understood it, the purpose was primarily to help students acclimate to acadmics in a university setting and to give them a slightly lighter load fall quarter. It was only worth about 5 credits total. This isn't a huge academic advantage.
I'm not at all suggesting you should forego it in favor of sorority recruitment - I don't know your history as a student, why you are participating in EFS or how interested you are in sorority life. If it turns out you can't do both, is there a reason why you feel you need to do EFS?
After all of that, I will now shut up and defer to someone from UW.
