Each chapter has several different types of dues and fees that must be paid in order for the chapter to function properly and for you to remain in good standing. Different chapters break their dues down differently, some include everything, and others allow you to make additional purchases for things like shirts, outside of the base cost. When you calculate everything, all of our chapters have relatively similar costs for a year.
For more information about each individual chapter's cost, please review the Panhellenic Financial Transparency Packet.
Below are some general terms and things to consider regarding sorority financial obligations.
One-Time Fees
These are generally paid during your first semester and may include a badge fee or initiation fee.
Chapter Dues
These cover chapter operations, as well as the cost of chapter events like sisterhoods and socials. Some chapter dues include the full cost of formals and t-shirts.
Inter/National Dues
These are fees that go to the inter/national organization and allow you to be a member of the larger inter/national organization, and often help to fund programming, operations, etc. put on by the inter/national organization.
