Becoming a Member - Cost

How much does it cost?

Becoming a member of a Black Greek Organization is not cheap and the fees change every year. That is the honest answer. Thankfully, the Intake Fees are a once-in-a-lifetime Expense. Therefore, anyone who is interested in becoming a member of a Black Greek Organization should carefully consider their finances when they consider their decision to join. Every Organization is not only looking for members who will join, but members who will remain "active" (financially supporting and working within a chapter) all their lives.

Why does it cost so much?

Intake Fees usually include a set amount required by the National Organization (for materials that you will need as a member), the chapter dues, and the cost of holding Membership Intake. Chapter Dues are determined by the chapter's financial obligations (obligations to the National Organization, local programs, and the cost of hosting different events).
