I am currently a junior, what do you think my chances of getting into the Mendoza College of Business are? Feel free to be brutally honest.
I have a weighted average of 3.3 ( i got all As my freshman year and 2 Ds and 1 C my sophomore year)
My SAT score is a 2000
I have been on my schools varsity dance team for all of my high school career.
I have close to 500 hours of volunteer work.
I teach dance at the summer camp run at my church.
I teach dance on the weekends at my church.
I am an active member of LEO club(through this i volunteer a lot and tutor kids)
I used to be a competitive dancer(i had to quit bc of my grades)
I am well aware that i fall far below the average notre dame student but would it be possible to get accepted if i continue to work hard this year and retake the sats and send in good semester one grades my senior year? Also would it help to get in touch with my regional admissions adviser?
thanks!
According to my school’s naviance, the average GPA accepted to Notre Dame is a 96.37 and the average SAT is 2163, so based on that I would say it’s a high reach school for you. I’m only a high school student, not an expert on college admissions by any means, but my advice would be to try not to get your heart too set on this school. My cousin goes to Notre Dame and she was at the top of her class and I think most of the students there were.
I’m rooting for you, but be sure to check out other schools too.
