[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]ND is 80-82% Catholic, which makes me think “why would a non-Catholic want to attend there when there are 3,000+ institutions of higher learning in the U.S.?”  But, after reading this story in The Observer, I would never send a non-Catholic there. https://www.ndsmcobserver.com/article/2024/04/a-transfer-students-thoughts-on-notre-dame-students[/quote]

Sure, a single story from an unhappy transfer (who, quite frankly, sounds immature a slightly unhinged) should definitely weigh more than all OP’s other research. . . .

I read the OP’s kid is coming form a non-Catholic school rather than the kid is non-Catholic.

I didn’t even understand the article.  But whatever.   The kid was a transfer, meaning he wasn’t happy at his last school either.  Clearly he’s the problem. [/quote]

Amazing, actually confirming the perspective of the article.  If this response was meant to reassure people that non-Catholics will have a good experience Notre Dame, it failed, and instead indicates the opposite. [/quote]

Nah. I agree with the PP. Plenty of non Catholics happy at ND but the writer of the article had a gripe and clearly ND (and his prior school) was not a good fit. I hope he found a place where he could feel at home, but my suspicion is that would be tough given two strikes already. [/quote]
