My daughter went through recruitment at USC last fall. (I pledged too...but that was in the time of the dinosaurs.) My older daughter went through as well, but she did not pledge. It is a very competitive recruitment. My daughter had an "advantage" because she knew one or two girls in three of the houses. She went into recruitment with 3 recs. And she had a very successful recruitment. I think that recs would be really importent for you since you might not...yet...have a base here.
I think that you are probably more saavy about recruitment than my daughter was when she rushed. But if you have any questions for me pm me and I will get the answer for you from my daughter if I don't know it. You can read her story (that I wrote with her permission) called the Reluctant PMN.
