[1] Each brother is required to place $50 annually in a Bond fund, set up and run by the Chapter and ACB (Alumni board). After four years or $200 accrued, whichever occurs first, Brothers are no longer required to pay into the bond fund. Upon graduation, each Brother will receive their matured bonds. Historically, Brothers have donated their bonds back to the Chapter to signify continued support of the Fraternity.
[2] Out-of-house fees may be waived if the Chapter residence is full or if the brother has a scholarship or grant from the University granting free housing on campus. All exemptions must be presented before the Chapter and ACB.

Please note that these costs are the base cost for each semester.  Additional fees may be incurred through group purchases (t-shirts, glassware, formal events, etc), most of which are optional.  Payment due dates for any additional fees will be set as necessary by the Treasurer and Accountant.
