The 1% why anyone would want their child to be in this group of a$$jokers is beyond me. The 1% Bezosing around on their yachts and d%ck-shaped rockets are what’s wrong with this world.

No doesn’t surprise me at all. Huge endowment and many wealthy legacies.
Agree, a perfect example of kids who are just coming in from privilege and then returning to that privilege with the stamp of approval from a name brand school. ND isn't even that hard to get into if you are a wealthy Catholic because you can boost your odds significantly by sending them to a highly regarded Catholic high school. It's like a sneaky backdoor way of easing your kid's admission to an "elite" school.
Why is it sneaky? I know lots of kids in my DS's Catholic HS that were not admitted. Being committed to Catholic education, however, doesn't hurt you if trying to get into a school like Notre Dame, but it is not the only thing they are looking for obviously.
Sounds like you are bitter.
Lol at being bitter about not going to ND -- why would a non-Catholic with good grades want to move to South Bend and hang out with drunk former alter boys for 4 years?
My family is mostly non-religious.
My kid is attending a protestant church with friends.
(kind of like half religious and half socializing)
My kid will choose between Notre Dame(already got in) and Georgetown(waiting).
Very coincidentally, both are Catholic based colleges, but that was not a factor at all when make a college list.
The kid picked a list of schools based on the field of study and the school itself.
The Kid wanted a school with an undergraduate business program.
The Kid doesn't want a cutthroat competitive or stressful level of schools: In my kids view - UPenn Wharton, MIT Sloan, or Cornell Dyson.
(yes the kid probably didn't have a good chance anyways)
There are a few great public undergraduate business schools like Berkeley Haas, Michigan Ross, UVA McIntire, UNC Kenaan,
but you have to apply again to a business program in 2nd or 3rd year for those public schools. Big added risk.
Also if given a choice, didn't want to go to a huge public school.
The kid liked Vanderbilt, but it doesn't have dedicated undergraduate business program.
So that leaves a handful of schools that my kid would consider - WashU, Rice, CMU, USC, Emory, Georgetown, and Notre Dame. .
Among these all things considered, The kid liked Georgetown and Notre Dame the most but leaning more toward Notre Dame.
The school itself is great, student caring and support is great, and most of all the business program is top notch with excellent opportunities.
School spirit and alumni network is a big plus for business students. The school is great for both finance and consulting

The kid wanted to go to a school in a city environment, so one downside would be the location,
but it's at least better than locations like Dartmouth or Cornell with populations 8,000 and 30,000, and Chicago is 1.5 hour away.
All the upside dwarfs this one downside.
I think the school is a great fit for my kid.
So that's one reason why a non-Catholic with good grades would want to go to Notre Dame.
I hope you learned something and I'm sorry if your kid got denied, but I'm sure your kid would also find a good school that fits.
I hope you realize 82% of students at Norte Dame are Catholic and 2 religion classes are required. If your child comes from a non religious family and never attended Catholic school and not attends a Protestant youth group, it is going to be a very big adjustment for your child because they will be an outsider.

RE Vandy: this doesnt really belong in this thread, but for those of us who like to read these because we often pick up some random helpful fact
My kid is at Vandy, and we get mail from Owen Grad school of Management re many opportunities for undergrads to submatriculate/immerse for MBA or to take a 10 or 12 month certificate program to get biz educ (finance/accounting/marketing) on top of whatever else they are studying. Yes, costly maybe, but some interesting opportunities.

Well he might want to downplay the non-alterboy part if he wants any access the Catholic college insider club.

For one the title of the article is misleading, a 1% is much less than 30 million in net worth. Also the lost includes graduate schools not just undergrad, and lastly Emory, Hopkins, Vandy, are heavy pre med schools. However they're tons of wealthy alumni at these schools.
