Hi! I’m thinking about joining a sorority this year. I’m really interested in Alpha Chi Omega but I was wondering who else is in a sorority and how they like it! Also, I heard that being in one can be pricey; how much exactly do you have to pay? What if you have classes that conflict with recruitment times? Thanks:)
Not in Greek Life, but most of my close friends are. I’m pretty sure all of my friends who are in sororities love it, and if that’s something you’re interested in definitely give recruitment a shot! I don’t think they’ll tell you anything about fees during recruitment week, but I’ve heard anywhere from $200 to $450 a quarter. And if your classes conflict with recruitment, you’re probably gonna miss class those days.
As for which sorority you should join, there’s no universally “best” fraternity or sorority for everyone—no matter what you hear. Go into recruitment with an open mind, and see which group you gel with best. It’s better to end up with sisters that you love than to peg a couple of top houses and end up miserable.
