my dearest baby was invited back to 6 houses (two were at the bottom of her bottom five), but thankfully the other four were at the top of her list We were sad that she was cut from one house that she really enjoyed (and it was special...I went to prefs there, too!). Anyway, she was cut from that one (but we had no rec there....Knew no one. I should have done a better job) Today, we are scrambling to see if any last minute recs can go into two of those four where we also have no recs...

My recruitment experience at UGA was identical. After the first round, I was only invited back to 6 houses. I won't lie- it is a slight blow, especially sitting next to my cousin who got a full invite list. I'd gotten cut from a few of my 1st party favorites, but a few I was a legacy at plus 2 I was interested in (and 2 I was not) invited me back. Please, encourage your daughter to stick it out through prefs no matter what. After round 2, I was only invited back to 4 houses for house tours, only 2 I was interested in. And I preffed those 2 plus 1 more...I ended up changing my mind at pref from a week-long favorite to the one that felt the most at home to me and it was the best decision I made! So cuts can be hard, but stick it out all the way through, and if in the end none of those feel right, at least she knows she gave them all a chance.
