With My First Visit, Comes My First Lesson

Can you find my poster?

I know exactly what you’re thinking. Did this Babson Admission Counselor really take a picture of her poster hanging on the wall at her first visit? Well, yes. I did.

I’d like to consider it a result of excessive excitement! I could barely sleep the night before because I was so nervous; however, I’m happy to report that my first visit was a success and the honor went to Saint Mary’s High School in Rutherford, New Jersey.

As a result of my first visit, I learned my first lesson:

LEAVE EARLY TO FIND PARKING!

I’m pretty sure that I drove around the block 3 or 4 times before I decided where to park. I was worried about blocking busses, garbage trucks, driveways, fire lanes, and most importantly, getting a ticket! All went well though, no ticket, no troubles and a great first visit.

First visit down! 19 more to go this week!
