Bienvenue au GreekChat!

If you will only be at an American university for one year, you may not be eligible to participate in recruitment. Once you determine where you will be going to school, call the Greek Life office at that university and ask. Even if you are eligible to participate in recruitment, GLOs (Greek Life Organizations) may hesitate to offer you a bid (invitation to join), as the members know that you will only be there for one year.

If you are accepted to a housed sorority, you may be expected to live in the house. You would have to live somewhere anyway, though, so you will end up paying someone for housing, whether it's the sorority, the university (for a bed in the dorms), or a landlord (for an off-campus apartment).

Regardless of whether you join a housed or unhoused sorority, you will have to pay dues each semester, and a one-time initiation fee. You will also have to buy a badge. A new member often has to spend several hundred dollars in fees for the first semester.

If you do join a GLO and you are initiated, you are a member for life, no matter where in the world you live. It's definitely worth investigating.
