They are different but I can see my kids liking both.

Most kids are not that narrow

False. ND has REA; it does not have EA. Georgetown has EA

Not quite. Both have REA. GU calls it EA, but they both have exactly the same restriction, you cannot apply to any ED programs. BC used to have the same, so students could apply EA to all. Now there are not many others. MIT has straight EA without restrictions, so a student can apply REA to GU and ND and EA to MIT. It would be nice if there were more.

OP, stop asking to compare schools (ie: trolling) - especially if they have nothing to do with the other. You have to visit in person.

Probably just a writer gathering info for a clickbait article.

One is Jesuit, one is not.
One is urban, one is in middle of nowhere.
One is a BIG football school; one is not.

What program is your kid interested in?

My kid is only applying to one of these schools. They are very different and he is not interested in the other, not applying.

One is common app; one is not.
One requires all test scores; one requires none.
Hence, one is a MUCH harder admit that numbers on usnwr don't take into account.

Georgetown is objectively the most prestigious school, but the goal is the best fit, so if your child prefers ND, that's perfectly fine.

ND is much more conservative. Jesuits are different.

Are you sure that you know what "objectively" means?

Not sure why this keeps being perpetuated. ND is somewhat left of center (which might be slightly right of some universities). Biden won easily among students. There is a wide range of political views.

It is the most selective of the two; it selects mostly on academic achievement; and it has an extremely strong reputation in foreign affairs (primarily), but also business and medical sciences.
