FINANCIAL RESPONSIBILITIES
Mu Delta Alpha Sorority, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) corporation, which is a special type of IRS exemption granting nonprofit status. Being a nonprofit organization means we must rely on membership dues to finance the national organization and chapter services. ​ Collegiate member dues vary annually based on need but are roughly between $200-300 and due at the beginning of each academic semester. This amount is a combination of national and chapter dues that are used to fund chapter operations, social events, and programming as well as allows the national organization to provide resources and support for the chapter. ​ Failure to fulfill your member financial obligations shall result in a judicial review, which could lead to expulsion from the sorority. We understand paying for college is a huge expense, which is why we offer a variety of opportunities to help pay for these expenses. ​ Please note other financial obligations to join an established chapter or charter a new chapter are separate expenses.
Academic RESPONSIBILITIES
Mu Delta Alpha Sorority, Inc. holds academic opportunities and professional development as one of its most important attributes. As Greek Life is supposed to encourage success upon graduation, we ask all members to participate in academic study hours semesterly to maintain a cumulative GPA of a 2.75 or greater (A B to B- average ).
