H1- let me also offer my congratulations on your admission. D1 is a member of a sorority at UVA and I can honestly say as a parent who encouraged her to rush and full supports the Greek system, it has been a wonderful experience. D2 has also been accepted UVA and is looking forward to having a similar experience. Each sorority is different and if you go into the process with an open mind you will find a house full of girls who will “fit” with.
Don’t get hung up on cost and prejudge the process (and no EP we didn’t and certainly couldn’t fathom sending our children to a 40k/yr nursery school). Each sorority has a different cost some are expensive others such as D1’s are not (it’s less than 1200 BTW). If you go to UVA get involved first semester on grounds in some student run groups meet sorority girls in those organizations and then determine if participating in rush and perhaps pledging is right for you. Good Luck!
