will i be broke?

Scholarships and things can be arranged. It's a very confidential matter too. There is also a handful of people who work to pay dues/expenses from "upper class" to "middle class" financially. It depends a lot on how your family raised you. Not a big deal

it’s so cheap...

you could if you have the connections ....but why? It might be much more enjoyable for you to not do one with tons of wealthy girls. An awful lot (but not all) of girls in those top chapters just eat where they want, shop when and where they want, go on Spring Break, football game, and Christmas trips where they want, etc. Lots of them don't have and never have had a real job before. Going to six street and dropping $50+ isn't a big deal for them. I really like a lot of those girls (but think that is why so many others hate them), but that isn't me.....I would have to say no to much of that at least sometimes.

Honestly, lots of chapters have girls who consider cost when going out to lunch or spring break etc. Choose where you would feel more comfortable. ALL chapters have great girls and good sisterhoods. More money really doesn't make those chapters "better. " Honestly recruitment is a time to figure out where you will be comfortable. Ignore all of this ranking stuff!

The TaBoO Post covers what happens to most of the excessive Chapter fees. They are skimmed by Chapter Officers.

No surprise !
