Notre Dame tonight

Sorry to those of you who got disappointing news. My legacy kid was rejected last year and it was such a bummer.

Sooo...how did the area Catholic schools fare?

Anyone know how many deferred applicants get admitted? It seems like an awful lot are getting deferred on social media.

Holy Cross would be excellent choice for kids deferred from ND.

I’m pretty sure in the past it’s ballpark 15% admitted, 15% deferred and 70% rejected in REA.

Yes, I think it was 13% admit / 13% defer last year… RD was 7%, with an overall 9% acceptance rate.

Did she get accepted??

I’m a different poster who was nervous as DD’s local Catholic school told her she’d get in…but they were right! Go Irish!

No.

If they want a Catholic school like ND, Georgetown is not a good plan B because they aren't Catholic any more.

Georgetown is still Catholic but perhaps doesn’t host enough save the fetus rallies for PP’s taste.

So far, I know of 2 acceptances and a deferral from DC's HS. DC was denied.

I'm thinking DC should have applied test optional instead. Had great ECs reflecting a ton of community service with homeless and disabled and school leadership. Great essays discussing service and faith. Catholic schools K-12.

Congrats to those admitted! And deferred -- there's still hope!

And to the comment above, I also know of 2 Dartmouth acceptances.
