<p>I'm strongly considering rushing in the spring but i have one issue that would prevent me from doing that. I'm about to sign my lease for next year and am tied up for the next three years so i wont be able to live in a fraternity house. Are there any fraternities that do not require brothers to live in the house at all during college?</p>
<p>There should be a greek FB page/individual organization page where you can ask that question. My guess is that there is not enough room in any frat/sor house to hold an entire class so it’s probably not a requirement…</p>
<p>I can tell you that almost all fraternities here that have houses in GV have their spring pledge class live in-house the following year. Most houses hold roughly ~40, so they’ll also have some of their fall pledge class live there as well.</p>
<p>If you are a freshman, you can expect to be required to spend your sophomore year in the house. It isn’t a bad thing at all though – all of my pledge brothers that live in our house absolutely love it.</p>
<p>The other option is to go with an organization that does not have an on-campus house. Just depends on what you are looking for.</p>
<p>I don’t have a problem with living in the fraternity house, but i already committed to an apartment for next year. Would a fraternity be willing to make an exception or is there no point? There is a possibility i could live in spring semester next year but I’m not sure yet.</p>
<p>I wouldn’t expect a fraternity to make an exception for something like that. I know my pledge brothers broke their leases to live in the house. </p>
<p>I wouldn’t write off rushing over this though. If anything, rush next fall. It is a really incredible experience.</p>
