living in a sorority house

by: Coug

I’m going to be a freshman and I’m planning on rushing next fall. I was wondering what the rules are about living in your sorority house when you’re a sophomore. Are you absolutely required to live in the house for a certain amount of time after your freshman year? How expensive is it to live in the house, is it more than dorms and or apartments on campus? thank you

So here is the best way to explain it. For some odd reason, I don't know, they want freshman to live in the dorms for I think a semester or year.. There are different time limits of how long a member should stay in the house. Seriously, there might be so many people who actually want a room in the house, you might not even be able to get one. Generally 1-2 years. Dorms are most expensive ,sorority house, and then an apartment. Personally, I lived one full year summed up at an apartment compared to one semester at the dorm. Remember that sorority houses don't allow alcohol or other unmentionables in the houses but if you bring some, keep it secret.

Some houses like AXO have longer requirements like 2-4 semesters, some of the houses like ADPi don’t require members to live in as long as enough people choose to live in that all the rooms are full. Some like DG have super high fees to live in, some charge “liveout fees” if you don’t live in the house. It all depends on which chapter you end up in, but every chapter will have a Finance Chair that can help work out a payment plan that works for you! Good luck in recruitment 😊

Just being straight upfront and forward, you are going to need in a sorority house. If you doing rush during fall rush, if you tell them, I am not interested in living in the house, they will immediately look over you. These live-out fees are sorority fees that is paid for living out of the sorority house. You have to pay money to the sorority after you move out into an apartment. Live the first year in the dorm, do the necessary amount of time in the sorority house and move out into an apartment after you complete your obligations. Telling you straight, if you join a sorority and you don't live in the house for at least a certain amount of time, they are going to be asking who the hell gave this girl a bid who only shows up for meetings and social events. Plus, living in a sorority isn't bad, you basically get to live in mansion with your future best friends, you get good food too, and there are generally quiet hours or a study room.
