University of Notre Dame Top Questions

Mostly its religous-affiliation; none of the other schools I looked at were affiliated with any religion. Also, it probably has the most school spirit out of any other school I applied to.

This school has a strong sense of tradition, in both academics and athletics, which I did not find in many of the other schools that i considered. Also the strong Catholic presence at the school is one of the main reasons I made the decision to attend the University of Notre Dame. Another unique feature of the school that was important to me was the guarantee of 4 years of on-campus housing if desired.

There is a lot of complaining about the tightness of the campus rules (codified in the campus rule book called "Du Lac"). But, there is much more flexibility on campus than Du Lac would have you believe. The administration may declare no drinking in the dorms or may declare that guys have to leave girls' dorms at 2AM, but these rules are not strictly enforced. No one is going to go around knocking on your dorm room door to see what's going on unless you are flaunting the rules so extravagantly that they can no longer reasonably ignore it.

Notre Dame offers an environment different from any other University that I have visited. It offers what I believe to be the perfect mix of athletics, tradition, academics, social life, moral and societal responsibility. More than that, Notre Dame creates a community in which students develop and evolve into adults that grow spiritually, religiously, and academically. I don't think any other university could have molded me into the person that I am today or could have affected my dreams and aspirations in the same way. Notre Dame is unique in the way that it shapes truly good people.

Family atmosphere

Our Catholic identity makes us special. We have chapels in all the dorms and a very strong religious presense on campus. We also have an incredibly rich history and beautiful campus.

Footbally, friendly environment.

I love my school!

Notre Dame is a spiritual campus. To give you a good idea I'll give you an example. Notre Dame has a chapel in every dorm. My dorm's chapel has seats for 150 people. For sunday mass it is standing room only. People will stand in the back and sit on the floor in the front for mass. Don't get the wrong idea though. You don't have to be catholic to enjoy yourself here. My dorm has 400 guys living in it, so about half go to mass and half don't. I myself am a protestant denomination and don't feel intimidated about the abundance on cathlic people on campus. One of my good friends is muslim and he still loves Notre Dame. So to rap it up. If your cathlic it will be easy for you to be spiritual. If your not cathlic your not the only one.
