Dues vary widely, depending on where you go to school and whether your chapter has a house that you live in, has a house that you don't live in, or doesn't have a house. Typically, if you live in a house you have to pay room and board. If your chapter has a house but you don't live there, you may have to pay for some meals at the house. If your chapter does not have a house, you pay the same room and board as you would if you were unaffiliated. In any case, you have to pay a certain amount in dues.
Initiation fees, including the cost of your badge, are usually charged in the semester that you join - so that one semester is naturally more expensive than subsequent semesters (aside from possible house-related expenses).
Most GLO's are willing to work out payment plans if you can't write The Big Check all at once.
