How did you tell your parents?

I beg to differ. You referenced the NPHC sororities which are part of the D9.

2-It is not uncommon for a student who is not working, but only a full-time student, to ask his/her parents for the money and/or take out a student loan to pay for the process.

By talking about this you introduced your Dad into it telling us he and your mother were no longer married. We didn't have to know that. And I bet your Mom wouldn't appreciate her business being told to complete strangers.

3-My sister isn't the first, second, or last person that will not join her mother (or his father)'s sorority/fraternity.

That was never the issue. The issue was the mother not being told in advance.

A bit of advice: quit before you dig your hole deeper.
