Question

Answer

Why did I get a bill for the summer when I have a summer credit for room renovations?

All summer residents recieve bills. If you have a credit due to room renovations it will be applied to your account at the end of the summer. Any late fees incurred due to the summer will also be credited at this time. Please note that all room renovation reciepts are due in to the Housing Corporation no later than August 31st. There can be no exceptions.


Why did some brothers get bills while others did not?

All active brothers were issued Omega Bills. Most bills went to the Frat House, however some were sent directly to the brother's home address. If you did not recieve a bill at the Frat, you should check your home mailbox as it should be there.


I do not live in the house, why am I being charged so many charges?

All active brothers pay towards the budgets that keep the house operational, not just the brothers living in the house. You can see a list of charges and their descriptions by looking at paragraph 2 of the current housing contracts. You can view these online in the Housing Corporation section.


I am a pledge, why am I being charged the same rate as a brother?

Semester charges are sent out once per semester. In order to give pledges the option of obtaining the pre-payment discount, their invoices needed to be sent out at the same time as the brother's invoices. Note that any pledges that do not become brothers before the end of the semester will have their payments refunded to them upon their request.


Why did the bills go up this semester?

The actual budgets this semester did not change at all from last semester. However, the bills increased since there are now fewer brothers than last semester.


How does this pre-payment discount work?

Any brother who pays their balance in full before the deadline will automatically recieve a 5% discount of all charges accessed on the 1st invoice of the Semester. This amount is noted on the Omega invoice. Any overpayment will be credited to the brother's account, and a refund will be made upon the brother's request. Note, however, that to qualify for the discount, a brother's signed contract must also be returned before the deadline.

What are the scholarships?

Each year at the White Rose Ball, the Alumni Association issues 2 scholarships to 2 active brothers. The Scholarship winners are chosen by the Alumni Association Executive Board from a pool of applications that are submitted. The Gold Key Scholarship goes to an upperclassmen brother. It is an award for $1000.00. The Silver Key award is given to a brother in his 1st year as an active brother. This award is $750.00. The Awards are available for use to pay the active brother's fraternity bills, Housing Corporation bills, or Stevens Tuition bills.
