I don’t drink and had the same concerns as you did.

Don’t worry about it. I managed to find friends pretty easily who also weren’t into that type of thing. While it may be a very big part of the culture of the school, it is not overarching all groups. There are plenty of students here who do not party (whether it be for religious reasons, personal reason, lack of interest, etc it doesn’t really matter).

I’ve heard mixed things about sororities. I know some girls who are very religious and are very active in sororities, but I’ve also heard from other girls that they felt pressured to drink or do other things from their sorority. My guess would be that it probably depends on the particular group of people.

If I were you, I would go through the rush process and feel it out. The USC Rush process for girls is very strict and you are not allowed to go to parties or drink during the entire process, so that will be a really good time for you to feel things out without any added pressures.
