The Interfraternity Council encourages that men going through the formal recruitment process have a minimum a 2.75 Core GPA from high school or a 2.5 college GPA if you have 12+ college units. Each fraternity must follow their own national academic standards and will not accept men below the individual standard.

Some fraternities might charge $3,000 per year while others could cost much more, depending on the school and whether you stay in fraternity housing.

You usually will sign a housing contract to live in the house, agreeing to the house's rule and to pay the agreed upon amount per semester. However, the cost of living in Greek housing is often less than living in an on-campus dorm or an apartment.
