Notre Dame welcomes 2,072 students into the class of 2025 this weekend

"The University hit a record with the number of applications and also hit a record with the lowest admittance rate ever at 15%.

Bishop noted that compared to 2010, the University admitted about 620 fewer students while enrolling the same number of first-year students.

“Notre Dame, while gaining in selectivity, has also gained in the preference of students who have been admitted,” Bishop said."
