Typically, you are obligated to a sorority for four years, unless your rush as a sophomore. You go into "alum status" when you either graduate (undergrad) or get married while you're still in school. I think if you transfer to another school that does not have your chapter you either go inactive or alum. However, you will still be a considered a member of that national sorority. I do not believe you can stay an active member while you are in grad school on the same campus and definitely not if you are on a different campus. I was a fifth year senior but was inactive that year, although if I wanted to I could have continued to pay dues to remain active. I lived with three actives, attended bid day, and even went to semi-formal as one of their dates. You can continue to participate in philanthropy and volunteer during rush behind the scenes, but you will no longer have a vote or be required to pay dues. If you want to be involved after graduation, you can look into being an advisor for your chapter or just volunteer when you feel like it. Sororities often have alum tailgates and reunions, too. After graduation you can join a local alum group that is made up of women of all ages from different chapters across the country. Whether you hang out with girls from different chapter in the same sorority after graduation is up to you. There may be an initial connection, but like any other person, being friends has to do with your chemistry.
