I’m losing it
i can’t tell if I’m excited or if I’m going to lose my lunch. I can’t take the suspense!
Has ND ever published a separate acceptance rate for the REA round? Some schools say that they offer more of their admissions offers in the early round. Does anyone know if this is true for Notre Dame?
@TheNewColossus You mean ND REA admission rate? It was 24.8% last year - 1,636 out of 6,598 REA applicants. And yes, ND REA admission rates tend to be higher than for RD. However REA applications are highly competitive and many hooked students tend to apply early - hence individual outcomes might well be the same, comparing applying to Notre Dame REA vs. RD. Data points from our daughter’s feeder high school suggests as much.
Are we still hoping for less than an hour until decisions?
@swimmerfish I think so! I’m very nervous as well
I don’t want to get anyone’s hopes up but I tried logging into portal and its not working. Seems like there is maintenece or too many people on it? Maybe a good sign for tonight??
It could also be my wifi but all my other websites are working fine
hey guys! assuming decisions come out tonight, I just want to post this quick message. your worth as a student and a person are certainly not defined by your ND result. all of us likely have outstanding applications and essays, so we may be left wondering what we could have done differently if the results aren’t what we want. we need to remember that schools often look for things out of our control - major, ethnicity, socioeconomic status, etc. - so our application could potentially be perfect and still get denied. additionally, even if you are denied, this outcome does not determine the outcomes of decisions to come. what ND is looking for in this cycle could be completely different than other schools on your list. regardless of the decision tonight (or maybe later this week), let’s remain positive and remember that we will end up where we belong. good luck to you all 
thanks for the support @mmb333!! and my portal is still working so…?
Good luck everyone !!! I know I’m new to this thread but I wish the best for everyone here!
We got scammed. No decision.
Looks like we will be revisiting this waiting game tomorrow everyone. Have a good night and try to relax!!
So dissapointed. Guess its Friday, or next monday or wednesday…
Nothing there. So Friday?
I am distraught
Probably Friday! If that’s what counselors are hearing, I doubt it would be later… See you all in 48 hours 
i have yet to get a decision? anyone?
Wait why may it not be posted later today (such as 6:30 Central time)?
They have always posted at 6:42 p.m. eastern
