I would personally suggest waiting until the spring. Here's why:
Like you said earlier, you've got a lot of things going on with school and credits, getting to know others as well as the campus. sorority life is a HUGE time commitment and although you'll be spending a majority of your time with your pledge sisters, school is of the utmost importance *even WITH study hours*. you're going to have to get adjusted to a whole new campus and a whole new lifestyle. joining a sorority may not be what you want or need to add on to your already pretty full plate. come springtime, when you've interacted with some sisters and gotten a good grasp of time management, i say go for it. besides, i feel that sisters of ANY organization would really respect you if you told them you were interested this semester, but wanted to focus on schoolwork first. that shows perseverence, patience and a good sense of what you need. i hope you do well this semester and good luck with any and every decision you make!
