Is it possible to attain sponsorship to cover the costs of joining a sorority?

It is absolutely possible for you to obtain sponsorship to offset some or all of the costs associated with membership.  As far as finding individuals you would have to do that yourself.  Older members in the sorority are your best bet if that is the way you go.  I know that most sororities offer some sort os scholarships, but I am unaware of any that offer scholarships to pay for membership.  You can do things on your own to raise the money such as car washes or bake sells on your campus....ESPECIALLY during campus events.  You can also go to a Costco os Sams and bu some snacks in bulk and sell them out of your room....that usually makes GREAT money in the evening hours.  Again regarding scholarships...you might want to look on the national website of the organization you are considering (if they have one) and contact them via phone or email to ask them that question.\nBest wishes to you on your endeavor.

Sponsor you?  Unless you know a millionaire or have a 4.0 GPA...you'll have to carry the financial burden yourself.  You can travel through your school in study abroad programs.....they will add the bill to your student loans....but you will still need some operational monies for survival.

You can contact various local companies and offer advertising for them in exchange for sponsorship.\nYou can contact local Homeschool groups and see if they would be willing to participate or know resources/have ideas.\nIf it is a NON-Competetive youth group you can occassionally get a non-denominational church to sponsor it.\nParents can often be excellent resources. Sometimes they will have the right connections in a company to get the ball rolling.\nTry to do fund raisers with the youth.\nContact your chamber of commerce and extention services. You will often find resources here.\n\nThere are *many* ways to get financial assistance in starting/running a youth group... but few will be willing to particiapte w/o security that you are doing something legitimate. If you can get in with a league or some other organization that is already established, you will have MUCH more success. \n\n***Be meticulous in your record keeping.***

Good luck to you. You'd probably raise more money if you tried to find some 'sponsors'.

You need to take it up with the principal or whoever funds the extra curricular activities before you can just start a club all willy-nilly.\n\nHey, I think its a great idea though. You're going to need LOTS of gym mats, beams, uneven bars. parallel bars, a big floor, a pit, at least 3 trampolines, a vault, chalk, guards, matching uniforms, leotards, or jackets, stereo...\n\nThis is going to cost lots and lots of money and time, I am not sure how possible it can be, but good luck in starting the club!

You could always, you know, pay them the money. I know one of the girls and she relies on SG money to pay for school.

What in the world are you doing - pledging a sorority???\nNo one should be able to force you to do stupid stuff like that.

Is someone willing to co-sign for you? If not, ask your school which lenders can help; they should have a list.

You might ask a local business to serve as your sponsor; in exchange for sponsoring your team, you wear their name on your t-shirts?! Something like that? I'd say check with a local bar/grille, market, community business. \nGood Luck!! Bowl Good!! : )

Have you tried the local college, they do part time courses in this type of thing  or even try and contact companies that may be interested in sponsoring you

No.  sorry.  I go to school with people studying to be nurses and they all have to pay.

I joined a sorority at the University of Missouri, it is different at on every campus. Take some time to research how big the Greek life is at Yale, you may find it silly to join at all.\nLots of ups and downs. First of all the emotional roller coaster of rushing. It is such a drama to try to impress these total strangers so that will let you pay to be their friend. I hated how plastic it felt. Luckily I was accepted in to the sorority of my choice, I was a Chi Omega. However a few of my girlfriends that I rushed with were not so lucky and they were crushed. It is ten times worse than not making the cheerleading squad because it isn't about ability, it is about you. It isn't about an extra-curricular activity, it is your social life for at least the next 4 years. It is really emotional!\nThen once I was in the sorority pledging took up huge amounts of time that I didn't get to apply to my studies. As a Yale student you may not want to fill your social calendar the way a sorority requires, especially as a pledge. Finally, the majority of Greek life is about drinking. I have never been so out of control in my life. I was constantly either drunk or hung over. I did so many things I regretted the next day. I never felt that sisterhood that was supposed to protect me at frat parties.\nTruth is that as a girl you can get in to almost any party you want to. The guys want you to be there. You don't have to spend the time and money necessary to join a sorority to get in. It is ready made friends, if you believe in that sort of thing. I found that after my sophomore year I made my own friends outside the sisterhood and they were much better and more real relationships.

apply for a visa at you nearest embassy... u'll need to draw a cheque in favour of the consulate paying the neccesary fees for the interview.. as for sponsorship... try contacting your local scholarship committees or rotary clubs

I'm not sure what are you talking about, but you can search for a sponsor.. check the usual ones, CocaCola or P&G.. or any company that you think is into sponsoring in your country.

Probably what you refer to is a pledge name. Usually that only happens in fraternities, but I guess some girls might do it. I have yet to encounter that in any of the campuses i've been to (I know greeks from sfsu, sjsu, csu:sac, berkeley, uc davis, ucla, stanford, usc, ucsd, and one from when ucsc had a greek system).

I just want to (gently) point out that this is not the type of question you should be asking online, especially if you are using your real Yahoo ID.  It's a smaller world than you think.\n\nNPHC organizations (as well as other ethnic greek-letter organizations) are very big on DISCRETION.  You cannot assume that you are going to be asked to join.  Generally speaking, no one who is actually involved in the membership process will answer a question like the one you posted.\n\nI would advise that you do some more research on sororities, and especially the lifetime committment that many of them require.
