You're a know nothing. Who's the mayor of South Bend again? What's his political party?

You gotta do better than this.


Yep. This info is all online. Hillary Clinton beat Trump by almost 40 points among Notre Dame students in 2016.

If you are scared to be exposed to any viewpoint that is not left-leaning, then yeah, Notre Dame is not the place for you. Try Oberlin or somewhere. On the other hand, if you want an environment where there are lots of views among students and are OK with people who think differently than you, then it shouldn’t be a problem.

"By state, Illinois accounts for the most incoming students (216), followed by California (159), Indiana (151), New York (145) and New Jersey (116). The only state without representation is Wyoming. New York ranks first among cities/regions with 237 students, followed by Chicago with 209 and Southern California with 116. Sixty-two students hail from the South Bend area.

Within the U.S., about a quarter of the class are from the Northeast; 19 percent are from the Central Midwest; 19 percent are from the Southwest and West; 15 percent are from the Midwest; and 14 percent are from the Southeast. Nine percent of students are international or U.S. students living outside of the country."

There's no way on earth that Georgetown has that kind of geographic diversity. Very few schools do.


Last I saw Georgetown had undergrad students from every state except North Dakota, and 11% international.

Yeah you may be right but I wonder if the distribution is as even as ND?

Here's the answer to my own question: it isn't even close. https://georgetownvoice.com/2017/02/08/and-now-for-something-different-how-many-students-are-from-new-jersey/

Here are some hard numbers to compare. Source 2018-19 CDS

6 year graduation rate 2017 cohort:
Georgetown: 96%
Notre Dame: 98%

Middle 50% ACT:
Georgetown: 31-34
Notre Dame: 32-35

Middle 50% SAT:
Georgetown: 1370-1530
Notre Dame: 1400-1550

Bottom line, kids enrolling at ND are by and large smarter and most likely to graduate on time.

Meh. Both have extremely high graduation rates, among the highest in the country. The difference is negligible. And I'm an ND booster.

But you cannot argue the hard numbers, which show that ND students have higher test scores than Georgetown students. It is pretty consistent, hence a significant datapoint.

I think both data points are pretty marginable. I certainly don't think they mean ND students are "smarter" because I don't think small differences in test scores make one student smarter than another. I do know that ND places a very high premium on test scores, though.

Is this for the college at GT or one of the other schools or an average for all of them? The test scores avry depending on the school. Does ND have different schools like GT?

I cant find the different test scores split out but the acceptance rates are quite different if that is an indicator. GT nursing is a good nursing program but the acceptance rate is 40%. Does ND have a nursing school?

Duh. Of course ND has several distinct undergraduate colleges. But the SATs reported are for all of them.

If you aren't sure whether ND has a nursing school, then you don't even know the basics about ND and are in no position to advise anyone on how it compares to GT.

And, no, it doesn't.

This is for incoming (enrolled) undergrad freshmen.
