I suspect this is a big factor in why girls leave for financial reasons after they're initiated--since, in a lot of chapters, they pay more the first semester than they do all other years combined. I imagine that it's hard to go shopping with your sisters when they can shop at Prada and you're stuck at Old Navy, or going out to eat and ordering less than you really want because you can't afford to do the same things as everyone else. After the first year or so, I think it's more the social pressures than the actual cost of being in a sorority.
