Notre Dame Class of 2021 EA Discussion

Hey guys!

I noticed that there is a results thread but there is not a ND REA Discussion thread. Now that our apps are in, how do you feel about applying early action?

PS- I applied early action a few days ago. I can’t wait until mid December!

I know you guys are seeing this thread :-@ nobody wants to discuss stats or admissions?

I would reply, but you said I respond to every ND thread and am a tr0ll. But good luck with everything.

@GraceDad =))

i applied! i’m really hoping i’m accepted or at least deferred to regular admission process. would be disappointing to be flat out rejected.

That is awesome! Did you put an intended major? Which supplements did you respond do? @r4cheh

Mid-December can’t come fast enough!! Where else are you all applying?

So exciting! I’m a parent who have had two kids go to ND (both EA), so I understand the excitement and stress waiting for the decision! Please feel free to PM or message me here if you have any questions! I had one daughter (ND '11) and one son (current senior), daughter a pre-med, now doctor and son is chemical engineering. It has been the best experience. Just goes too fast… BEST of luck to all! Go Irish!

Does anyone know when decisions come out?

@GraceDad thank you!

So I have several friends who currently attend ND and one of them spent the entire week I was applying in the admissions office… there are a ton of people willing to help you out! He basically clarified the supplemental questions for me and even got their opinion on a topic I was considering writing about.

@DryMango I intend to major in Psychology. I answered the supplement telling how my home influenced me and then i picked the one that was an open prompt (said to take a risk).

Is anyone else sick with stress regarding the decisions

@kaileeko regarding Michigan, maybe. I already know I’m getting rejected from Notre Dame. I’m constantly checking CC and Wolverine Access even though nothing has/will change until decision day, which can’t come soon enough. ugggggggggghhhhhhhh

@kaileeko YES

I also applied to Michigan so I completely feel your pain!

@as1799 what’s gonna happen when Notre Dame says yes to you? You never know!!!

@Seacoast that’s actually a good point :). I emailed my regional admissions rep about how I’m doing senior year with grades and he said “Keep up the good work!” I’ve been saying to myself that he wouldn’t have responded if I didn’t have a chance.

Also, I made a BIG mistake with my UMich application by writing the Why UM essay about the CoE instead of LSA, and my regional rep allowed me to change it, which took some work on his end. Because of that, I’m also telling myself that it means I have a shot. Both counselors were probably being kind and courteous, though. I don’t know. I just neeeeeeedd mid-December to come NOW.

I’ll probably die waiting for UVA’s response in January. I can’t wait that long man. THIS IS SO STRESSFUL
