The next day, I went to my recruitment counselor to pick up my list of where I was going to pref. I was absolutely astounded when I opened it and saw:
1. Atlanta
2. Beverly Hills
OMG. How could New Jersey have dropped me? I was devastated. I ran back to my room and cried, ready to drop out of recruitment entirely.
My roommate- who was not rushing and admittedly knew pretty much nothing about the process- was desperately trying to comfort me. "Well, you liked Beverly Hills the whole time, didn't you?" she said. And that just put everything into perspective for me. I HAD liked Beverly Hills the whole time, and clearly they liked me. Why would I drop out when I was lucky enough to have that? I decided to stop crying, and get ready and go to prefs.
