I am certainly not saying that the costs are not worth it--the group cited was the most costly for first semester and the average dues per semester for actives was also among the highest. VTMom--you are right to ask questions, and, as others have indicated, the dues may include all kinds of "extras". This eliminates the need to pay for things as you go, which can be very helpful when trying to stay on a budget. Also, many organizations offer payment plans so that is something to consider. All the dues were listed on the VT Panhellenic (NPC) website.... someone provided the link earlier.
Best of luck to you and your daughter. There were some great recruitment story threads last year....from BamaDad DZ and TexasMom (I think that's right). Read and enjoy!
