sorority fees payment plans
by: ElleSo idk if the fees are the same for all sororities at UBC, but I'm really interested in joining and was kind of worried about the fees- is there some sort of monthly or bimonthly plan and how much do you pay on that basis ?

Expect dues to be between $1300-1500 in your first year. This will go down to about $1000 in your second year and each year after that.

Many people pay their dues bi-annually (aka at the start of each semester). However, if you demonstrate financial need and get it approved you can pay your dues on a monthly basis.
You will also get fined for missing mandatory events, paying fees late etc.
Not to paint a bad picture but just so you're aware of the reality - it's expensive and you need to be prepared for it

So its actually cheaper paying annually but if you don't have money saved up there are monthly options.
