Hi Possible Future Gator, Yes, it is possible to balance work and sorority life. Many girls in my house work part time jobs to help them pay their college expenses. Each house will have dues of varying amounts. The largest single item will be the meal plan at the house, which is mandatory. So if your parents plan to buy a UF meal plan (I would not recommend that), I would suggest they pay for the sorority meal plan instead. New member dues are a little higher due to initiation cost. My first semester bill was $2,700 but thereafter the bill goes down to $2,000 a semester. Also, your bill may be a little higher depending on what you charge to your account (shirts, philanthropy tickets, etc) BTW $1,000 of this total is for the meal plan, which is cheaper than the UF meal plan ($1,800) plus the food is a much better:) perhaps you could use this as a selling point for mom and dad. At my house the bill is broken up into payments during the semester to make it affordable. I would definitely recommend going Greek! Good luck to you.
