I don't know if every single member in every single sorority will see your grades but they will, most likely, know at some point. It's best to have a minimum 3.0GPA going in as an upperclassman. If your grades have been improving greatly in your last few quarters, I would let the alumnae writing your recommendation know that you had a hard first year and have been doing great since then (with specifics like, "X.XX gpa in past 3 quarters", is a good example). Especially if it's at the same school. And summer grades count too! That's a great time to improve your GPA, with potentially less distractions than the school year.
On your recruitment resume, don't be shy about your accomplishments. List all your activities, awards, leadership, community service, etc.
Unfortunately, no one can predict your chances on getting a bid. But you won't get a bid if you don't go through recruitment. Good luck, seize the opportunity, keep an open mind and let us know at GC how things turned out!
