by: future pnm

is is possible to be in kappa and not be rich? i will be on scholarship/financial aid and am working this summer. i have everything else about them covered - grades, looks, connections - so please no posts on that. just looking for an honest answer of kappa would cut someone for not having a big house or nice car. no posts either about finding the right house. just answer the question. tia!

Yes. Your connections will either pull for you or they won’t. There are more wealthy girls in Kappa ( but plenty of wealthy girls in ALL sororities) because they pull for girls from their hometowns. If they are from a more affluent area then most likely their friends are as well.:)

They cut girls on scholarship. That’s the truth and you know it is.

They have lots of girls with scholarships. Grades are their big thing so it makes sense they would have won all types of scholarships. Maybe you meant financial aid? There’s a big difference.

yes, I know plenty of Kappas who do not come from wealthy parents. A lot just regular middle class types ... parents ministers, moms teachers, those types.

many of my kappa friends have scholarships to pay for school. Financial aid? Can’t specify. There are so many wealthy girls in kappa but plenty that are “normal” and using scholarship to pay for school. You’ll find that in every house too. It’s just a stereotype that is definitely not true of everyone.

Houses can’t see if you’re on financial aid (as far as I know) & not even scholarships unless it’s on your resume or something somewhere! They do cut for grades, and scholarships show that you’re dedicated to school. If you get cut by kappa (and many houses) it’s a combo of connections, grades, your involvement in HS and so much more. NOT if you’re on scholarship or financial aid. That’s ridiculous.

I’m a kappa! Many of the girls surrounding me do have money but I don’t come from a wealthy family at all!!! I’m sure you will have a great rush!! Just get to know us :-)

This question is based on a stereotype that goes on around here that kappas only take rich girls and is a house 100% full of them. Are there rich girls in kappa? Yes!! Are there girls on scholarship in kappa?? Yep. Does the same go for chio, pi phi, tridelt, KD, phi Mu, etc??? Yes!!! There are rich girls in EVERY house & sororities tend to be an extra expense for every girl, so it would make sense that any girl in a sorority ~probably~ has extra money to spend. Kappa also values scholarship so if you’re on any sort of scholarship, they would value that! And, there’s no way for any house to see if you’re on financial aid or other forms of scholarships. PNMs, don’t let any of that worry you! Go with your heart during rush!
