[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Admittedly, if DC had a choice of UChicago, Princeton or ND we would all choose ND. [/quote]

As a Notre Dame graduate, I cannot begin to fathom why.  I would have taken Univ of Chicago or Princeton over Notre Dame in a heartbeat.  I didn’t get in to either but obviously did at ND.  [/quote]

When did you graduate?[/quote]

Good question.

While ND is obviously not as selective as Princeton or Chicago -- few schools are -- the gap isn't nearly as large as it used to be.  Our oldest got into ND after being deferred ED to UVA (in state).  A decade later our youngest with a much better record wasn't even waitlisted.  We also have a close relative at Brown who got rejected by ND.

ND isn't for everybody, as others have said, but it's for enough people for its admissions standards to have become astronomical.  There's this constant refrain about its terrible location.  Just imagine how selective it would be if it were located somewhere else.   [/quote]
