It is important for students and parents to be as informed as possible regarding the costs associated with obtaining a college education. Understanding the financial obligations associated with fraternity or sorority membership is just as important.
Fraternity or sorority membership is a contractual agreement. When you join, you assume many financial obligations and it important to be aware of these obligations and take them into consideration. During recruitment/rush, a potential member should ask members about financial obligations and payment options. Each organization sets its own fees and the payment schedules.
The first term of membership is usually the most expensive due to many one-time fees (headquarter fee, initiation fee, etc.). All organizations are willing to work with their members on an individual basis to create payment plans if necessary. These financial obligations do not include every expense for a member. Additional expenses (t-shirts, jackets, etc.) may occur and expectation of these expenses will be communicated by the organization.
For specific financial information before or during recruitment/rush, direct your questions to the organization of interest. You can also contact Fraternity & Sorority Life with any questions.
