Does anyone happen to know when to expect Spring Transfer decisions to be released? It says decisions released Dec 1 - Jan 5, which is a large window so I am curious to know if there has been a similar date in the past for when spring transfer decisions were released. Thankful for any help you can give.

Hello!!

My roommate and I want to get a (real) Christmas tree for our place, and we don’t really know where to go?

It’s our first time doing it on our own, and I’ve found a couple cut your own tree farms, but I was just hoping for one of those lots with a bunch of trees piled in. Does anyone know where those are?

Is it too early for these lots to be out? It is December, so I thought they’d be easier to find 😆

Hi, I’m curious about the acceptance rate and class profile of the ACE program? Also, any insights into the social scene (both during the summer and at the community sites during the year) would be much appreciated. Thank you

Hey! Are international students eligible to apply to Notre dame if they don't possess a passport during the application process (but are sure that they will have one by feb/match next year) ?

Do the other colleges need an application to transfer into like Mendoza? Could I do Science to Engineering?

Hi, international REA applicant here. I was looking to submit my last few documents, but I don’t know how to go about it.

Specifically, what should I do about the first quarter/trimester grades? I asked my counselor and he said I should use my predicted grades, as at the time of prediction, that’s where I was at academically. All of them are, however, already separately noted on the transcript my counselor submitted. Should I still send them in myself for good measure?

Also, in regard to the verification worksheet, how am I supposed to fill it out, if at all? Any of the three options in step 3 don’t apply to my current financial situation, as my parents have filed a foreign tax return.

Thanks in advance.

I’m looking to attend notre dame when I separate from active service. I would be 22 which is a bit older than most college students. I would love to commission and take advantage of everything rotc has to offer. Would it be weird to go into it as a veteran?

I didn’t have time first semester (I’m a freshman), but want to get involved in cool business clubs that are unique, could lead to future leadership/cool experiences, etc. What clubs would you recommend??

The way Notre Dame students literally pounce on anyone saying something bad about Notre Dame truly shows how wonderful and loyal of a community there is at Notre Dame. However what would you say are the worst parts about Notre Dame which could make someone hate it in extreme cases.

Looking into ND MSM program as an option to switch into a career in Finance - looking at FP&A, Financial Analyst roles, or corporate banking. Any thoughts on the program setting students up for success in business? Or should I look to other avenues?

I am an international student who applied to the University of Notre Dame REA. I want to know what is the competitive range of IB scores in applying ND's REA round.

Looking for a swim cap for my daughter for Christmas. Anyone swim for ND that would be willing to send me one?

I am really nervous as ND is my dream school and I want to gauge where I am at

Allan Dwan was the starting quarterback for the Notre Dame football team at the outset of 1906, but his parents made him quit football, fearing it was too dangerous.

It was probably the right call. Dwan became a Hollywood legend.

Hi--I was at work Thursday so was unable to grab one of the shamrock series print from the "bookstore" at the Sheraton in Times Square (https://fightingirish.com/fbprint/)--I'm curious if anyone has a copy they'd be willing to sell?

Thanks so much in advance!

How hard is it to get in ND architecture in terms of stats and what not?

does anyone know anything about the business statistics professor josephine acosa? How hard is she and how do people typically do in her class? what about william stamey for business statistics?

Hi! I'm interested in applying as an engineering major to ND, but I was unable to find much information or reviews about the engineering program there. I would appreciate it if anyone could tell me more about the quality of the faculty and research, and what the social life is like. I'm not into partying, so is there anything else to do?

i graduated may 2024 and wanted to take a gap year and apply for notre dame. my gpa was a 2.9 in high school (had a lot of family stuff going on and it tanked my gpa, same with some random classes. long story). missing 2 foreign language credits (admissions said i can still apply and it can be taken care of once i get in? i’m double checking on it). i do have a lot of extra curriculars which i actually did good in. am i cooked when it comes to getting in?? i was thinking of taking some classes through ivy tech or something maybe to help but i dont really know how it works. my counselors didnt help

Hello, I will be moving to the area for a summer internship (≈ May 15 - August 15). I am preferably looking for a 1 bedroom apartment, but am open to living with others.

I will start by saying I’m not a high school student. I am 22 years old and am a military veteran

high school Grades- I went to a small private catholic school in new jersey which was a very good school within the state, but not like the northern prep or boarding schools. I was a sold A and B student in honors with a few IB classes sprinkled in and a few College prep classes. I maintained a 92.5 gpa on a 100 scale

SAT- I took it and did very poor but my scores expired since it was 4 years ago and ND is test optional

Extracurriculars - I was a four-year varsity swimmer, which I went to states for and won and was a captain. I also was a club swimmer also played varsity football for three years which we also went to states for two times, but we didn’t win. I was in theatre and my school choir. I am an Eagle Scout. I worked as a lifeguard during my summers and even competed in statewide competitions, I even competed in a Red Bull one once. That last thing set the tone for what I did after high school

Post high school - I applied to Notre Dame and naval Academy and unfortunately did not get in high school, I had about 15 other schools looking at me, but it did not feel right. At 18 years old I enlisted in the United States Coast Guard. During that time I took college classes to prepare myself to go back to college

Military career- I enlisted at 18 years old fresh out of high school which feels like ancient history now. Went to basic training in New Jersey, not far from my hometown when I graduated, I was sent off to my first unit in Florida. I eventually went to a training school to become a boatswain mate, which is a person that is an expert at all things seamanship and performs almost everything but flying. Throughout my time, I have conducted numerous search and rescue missions, chased drug runners and captured billions of dollars worth of controlled substances, helped to rebuild the south after major hurricanes, played the key roll in the illegal immigration crisis and maintained major navigational systems for major ports from Alabama all the way to Miami, and maintained lighthouses.

In my free time I volunteered at horse ranches for unwanted horses as a caretaker because livestock is something that always made me feel close to home. I got big into scuba and spent some time volunteering at my church

Why I want to get in so bad- ND was something I had been obsessed with my entire life. I grew up in a very devout Catholic family, but never really got into it until I joined the military. When I joined the military especially in the beginning I was depressed and hated myself everything because all my friends where I college living their life and I was in the middle of the ocean chipping rust. I started going to church more because I reminded me of home and I haven’t looked back. I really want a school where I could wear my faith and it aligns with my values I feel that it would be the right place for me but I doubt I am the caliber of person especially compared to most of the people who post these things. I would love to do ROTC and gain my commission. I have emailed the person who runs it and they said they would be willing to write a letter of recommendation for me. I would love to major in history with intent to go to law school.

Stats: low income (heard ND is need-blind?) School: Gifted school (ranked 3rd in city)
GPA: 9.7/10 (based on college board conversion it should be 4?)
SAT: 1530
IELTS: 7.5
Intended major: CS
Personal statement: 8-9/10 LORs in general: 9/10

Extracurriculars:

Vice president of nation-wide bootcamp about machine learning
Co-founder of on-going YouTube channel about CE and CS
Researched about machine learning in communication systems, scheduled for published in WILEY and IEEE
Personal project about smart traffic lights, winning 3rd place in science fair
Researcher at a university's AI lab, i mostly learn how to improve the personal project mentioned above
Interned at a company specializing in web and app development, helped improve their internal system
Reviewed 2 academic paper, 1 for Elsevier and 1 for IEEE
Leadership position in school's computer science club
SAT math tutor, paid to teach sat math specifically

really liked ND cuz of the dining hall and bengal bouts (i do boxing and it gives me a chance to help people in need so really wanna participate)

This school is my dream school by far, and I'd love to go. I have a 33 ACT, 4.03 weighted GPA (expected to go up this semester). My school doesn't do unweighted, but a calculator I used online says 3.74. I have taken 4 AP classes so far (all 5s) and I am taking 4 more this year. Mid-size public school in MA who hasn't had an student go to ND in 2 years.

Do I have a realistic chance? I have demonstrated lots of interest

I am a freshman struggling to make meaningful connections with girls because I do not love to party. I am looking for a committed relationship rather than hooking up. Does anyone have any ideas or advice for this? I am not opposed to dating apps or similar things (Ive heard maybe Bumble or Hinge or even Fizz), and I have joined a couple clubs, but that has not helped. I am an engineering major if that changes anything to. Thanks in advance for the advice!

I am a sophomore transfer and am thinking about leaving ND next semester. I am a non-legacy from a very different financial situation than most of my peers. I have one close friend but do not feel happy without more people and I haven't found that especially given that there is not much to do off campus-even bars are not consistent for sophomores. Most transfers live at the 87 so I haven't met those people and the clubs I joined met infrequently as I am not an athlete/musical theater person. It feels like everyone just loves it here and nobody has a different experience and I don't really see a path to meet people (my dorm is big and isn't known for their culture). I would study abroad next year but just don't know if I can wait until then and I've heard that can be clique-y too. Also if I transferred I would go to an in-state school which is obviously a step down academically and career-wise so I am very torn.

Has anyone transferred out of ND?
Ideas for things to join second semester if I stay?

Helpppp

Thanks!!!

I know he has a 97.5% cut off for an A in his principles of physics class but I was wondering if everything else (A-, B+) had inflated boundaries too.
