Notre Dame Class of 2023 REA Thread

ND 2022 student here. Happy to any questions you might have. Best of luck to everyone!!! :slight_smile:

@dmac21155 What does the portal look like when you go to check?

Another student from ND class of 2022 here. Good luck to all of you!

im scared!

@Ndgirl1901 once you open the portal if you got in there should be a picture of the front entrance to ND with the words ā€œCongratulations. Welcome Home.ā€ Thatā€™s assuming they keep it the same as last year.

This anticipation is kind of excitingā€¦ nothing to be afraid of. This is a great group of applicants so the future is bright no matter what happens tomorrow

i went to an event w one of the admissions counselors and she was like ā€œik some ppl think the early rate is easier to get into bc its 35 or something but its not, its the same as regular which is 19ā€ hope this helps :slight_smile:

@dmac21155 So right after we log in weā€™ll see if we got in? We donā€™t have to click a new link to view the decision or anything? Thatā€™s honestly terrifyingā€¦

I am very uncertain whether I will get inā€¦ on one hand I think I will and one the other I think I will get rejected:(

Can someone explain why everyone is so certain that Friday (today) is when results will come out? Is there tradition or other info Iā€™m not aware of?

@moonlightshadow donā€™t worry Iā€™m feeling the same way, but remember thereā€™s always regular decision!! :slight_smile:

@wetried2023, in previous years the decision has been posted during ND finals week, which is this week. Previously they were posted on the Monday or Wednesday of this week. A few posters who seem to be from feeder schools have said their GCs told them it would be today.

@caroline228 I knowā€¦ but as an international applicant I have no idea how it would work. A very few people from my country go there. Also I would need financial aidā€¦ which affects my application. It feels hellish as 6:42pm est is something like 5 in the morning for me. So I end up staying up all night. It is just very stressingā€¦ But thank you for supporting!I hope you do get inā€¦ :smiley:

I woke up deathly ill this morning, so I donā€™t think this is a good omen for what is to come from my decision today. Saying a prayer for all of you!

@bachbend I hope you do well :slight_smile: Prayers for you.

The latest from Notre Dame admissions Twitter:

ā€œNow that finals are (almost) over, itā€™s safe to divulge our Friday Fives: Finals Edition. Check out our favorite study spots for next time around. Take note - as Intern Augie stresses, these are popular spots and they go quickly! ntrda.me/2GbLUdl. ā€œ

@havingfunismy I personally would not necessarily wait for a Twitter or Facebook announcement to be made by ND Admissions before decisions will be posted. Simply check out the admission portal today at 6:42 pm EST or at any time thereafter for applicants in a different time zone, or if this time should otherwise be inconvenient - the decision will absolutely not have changed in the meantime - or simply wait for the announcement e-mail to arrive in your e-mail inbox. The latter is actually in some way highly recommendable, as it avoids continuous portal checks. Good luck to all this evening!

Hi: I set my Twitter account to send an alert to my phone if a college admissions office posts, I am not staring at Twitter all day waiting for something to arriveā€¦

My point is that other colleges (Georgetown, Boston College, Penn, etc.) used their Twitter accounts to alert people that admissions decisions were coming.

Of course, we will check the portal at 6:42 tonightā€¦ Good luck to everyone!

Grandma just called admissions and they said results by Monday and would not say anything about today. Iā€™m hoping they still come out today but starting to doubt it.

Oh man, ND is really playing with our hearts here :ā€™)
