There was a thread here last year or the year before on this same topic. There is NO way to tell how much it is exactly going to cost because there are too many variables:
does she want a jeweled badge or a plain one; how many tee shirts does she JUST HAVE TO BUY; how many socials can she just NOT STAND to miss; etc, etc, etc. The first year is more expensive because of pledging fees, badge fees, house corp fees andmany others that vary from chapter to chapter. Her food service will get switched to the house so that will wash out as you've already paid that....I assume.
I don't understand how parents let their daughters go thru recruitment with a dollar limit. Seriously, she visits every house and HAS to accept every invitation if she has a time slot or else she will be released. That's the system. So you want her to fall in love with a group of women and then bail? Really? Did you not think that through? If $2400 is the average, you know there are plenty out of the 17 that are higher. Let her find her place and then do whatever you have to do to pay for it. You knew the odss were it would be higher. Let her get a job to pay part of it. There are lots of ways to handle this besides making her go thru this emotional roller coaster of recruitment and then quit. Give up your lattes and pay the tab.
