Connections at Notre Dame

Hi Everyone,

Just wondering what kind of influence a letter or recommendation and a phone call can have from a huge donor and trustee emeritus at Notre Dame. I’m well qualified to get into the school, however, I could be waitlisted…could help from that trustee sort of “push” me through admissions? Any input appreciated.

Thanks

If he/she knows you well enough to write a personalized letter in support of your application, it certainly can’t hurt.

Not much, unless you are directly related to them.
