Potential New Member ID:Gamma Chis:Group Number:
Dear Potential New Member,
We are so excited that you are interested in joining sorority life at Purdue University. Throughout this process, you will meet some of the most amazing and dynamic women on our campus. They are giving, smart and kind, and we have no doubt that you are about to make friendships that will last a lifetime.
In addition to joining a sorority, you will also be joining the Panhellenic sisterhood and greater fraternity/sorority community at Purdue. It is within this community where you will create friendships, build yourself as a leader, serve the community, and ultimately become the best version of yourself.
The recruitment process may seem quick and overwhelming, but we are confident that if you trust the process and take advantage of every opportunity to become part of this sisterhood, you will find your home by the end of this journey. Use this book to take notes about each sorority you visit. Write down the names of women with whom you made a strong connection, feelings you got when you were with members, and values of the organization that matter to you. Have an open mind and remember that each sorority is unique and that it sometimes takes longer than one or two rounds to grasp what they have to offer.
We truly believe that joining a sorority was one of the best decisions we ever made and cannot wait to see you find your place in our sisterhood. We hope you enjoy and trust the primary recruitment process and welcome to our community!

Financial TerminologyParlor Fee: A fee that both live-in members and live-out members pay in order to upkeep common areas of the house that are used by everyone.
Chapter Dues: Dues that are paid to the Chapter’s International or National Headquarters.
Local Dues: Dues that are more specific to the Chapter.
Badge Fee: Your badge is also known as your initiation pin, and most chapters require you to purchase your own pin upon initiation.
Date Functions: Chapters may host Formals, Semi-Formals, or other spontaneous dances and some Chapters have this as an additional fee to attend while others include the fee to attend in the dues you normally pay.
Family Days: Throughout both the Spring and Fall Semesters there are various events such as Dad’s Day, Mom’s Day, or Parents Weekend and some Chapters have this as an additional fee, while others include this fee.
Other InformationJoining a sorority is a financial obligation and we have chapters that are both housed and unhoused on our campus. If you were to receive a bid from a housed chapter, there are live-in requirements that are listed on their respective chapter information page. A “+” listed next to the live-in requirement indicates that you may be expected to live-in for another year if the house is not full to capacity. This can be clarified at each chapter during the rounds.
