[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Where does it rank? Not HYPSM obviously but I'd put it with the next level (Columbia, Penn, Brown, Duke). The 12% acceptance rate seems generous but predictions are it will go into low single digits next year with the Common App.[/quote]

It’s in the same tier as Notre Dame, Boston College, and Holy Cross. Good Catholic schools with strong reputations among the non-Catholic community in the United States. Villanova would be a tier above all four schools given their basketball program and pipeline into the Vatican. [/quote]

This is…a ridiculous take.[/quote]

Exactly. Notre Dame is a tier above Georgetown. You’re comparing a school with an $18 billion endowment with one with less than $4 billion. [/quote]

Notre Dame might be slightly ahead of Georgetown. But endowment has very little to do with it.

That being said, they are very different places and I'm guessing there are plenty of kids who choose Georgetown over Notre Dame. Georgetown location is much better. And Notre Dame is kind of culty while Georgetown is more "act like you've been there before." YMMV.[/quote]
