I will go out on a limb and say if she gets PERSONAL recs (i.e. from a relative or good friend who is a member) it may help, but an info-only rec if her campus doesn't do recs much at all? It will just look like she thinks she has an "in" and will probably cause comments like "why is some old biddy from ChaCha U telling us to pledge this girl she doesn't even know? That's weird. Drop her now, please."

And if she has to break her back getting in touch with sorority alumnae she doesn't know from Eve - she is wasting time she could be spending getting to know the sisters who will, um, actually be in the chapter with her.

I know this is the exact opposite of many schools but if her school really is "elite" the students are probably not of a mindset to listen to what anyone from other schools tells them, in any arena, sorority rush included.
