Financial commitment
We are committed to providing a transparent look at the financial commitment of joining a sorority. All National Panhellenic Conference (NPC) organizations pay semesterly dues ranging from $680-$900. New member dues will be charged the first semester of joining an organization and are typically more expensive than the active member dues. The first semester includes one-time fees (e.g., National Registration, Badge Fee) required during the new member period.
Financial assistance
Payment Plans: Many chapters offer flexible payment plans to accommodate student needs. Please speak directly with a chapter's Director of Finance after receiving a bid to discuss options.
Scholarship Opportunities: There are a variety of national organization scholarship opportunities, as well as possible financial aid support through the Columbus Alumnae Panhellenic Association.
There is no fee to register for Primary Recruitment.
