[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Disagree ND was always the top Catholic school followed by Gtown and Holy Cross. Would say they still are and in same order. Major difference now is ND has a $20 billion endowment whereas Georgetown in the $3-4 billion and much smaller Holy Cross < $1.5 billion. [/quote] Sorry, but in regard to selectivity at least, you are not correct that ND has always been top. In the 1990s, Georgetown was significantly harder to get into than ND. Students often applied to both, and fewer were accepted at Georgetown. The SAT and GPA averages at Georgetown were much higher than ND. But today, they are equal (at least) and it seems that among the students accepted to both today, most prefer ND. But selectivity isn't everything, and you might well argue that ND was always on top for Catholic community, alumni network, etc. [/quote]
