We like to take a more personal approach just you have the opportunity to be assured that Mu Sigma Upsilon Sorority, Inc. is right for you! We have a TIARA program, which allows you to become an interest to familiarize yourself with the chapter and how we do business, as well as, get to know the sisters on a more personal level. If you are interested in learning more about what it means to be an interest, we invite you to attend a "Ladies Night," which is our informational session.

We are happy you are interested! In order to join you need to complete our new membership orientation process. This does require a $600 fee along with a portfolio.

We are a smaller organization, this does allow us to become closer to one another regardless of distance.

Do you guys step or stroll and what is that?

We are a saluting, stepping, and strolling organization. Saluting is something we do to pay homeage to our sisters and to celebrate the diversity within our organization. Stepping is an art form used to express ourselves by using our own bodies to form a beat. Strolling is another art we use to express ourselves by using music and dancing in a line.
