Financial Information
Each chapter differs in their financing so this breakdown is a rough estimate at the high level.
As with any organization, membership in a sorority requires dues. Dues in a typical year cover activities such as REC sports, social events, chapter operations, Panhellenic House chapter room rent, and educational programming. When you first join, there will be some one-time fees such as purchasing your badge. With it being a virtual campus this year, many of the regularly budgeted events have been taken out, and these include semi/formals and physical events.
