<p>Since I can remember I've wanted to go to Notre Dame. I was brought up in a family that loved Notre Dame, mainly due to the fact that my father is a graduate. Unfortunately, I was simply not an A-student. With a measly 3.1 UW GPA through high school and less-than-spectacular 1240/1900 SAT scores, I applied and prayed that I would get in. Opening up the mailbox and seeing the thin envelope today was without a doubt one of the most disapointing things I've expereinced. It's not that I expected to get in, because by no means did I think I would, it's just that now there isn't that hope.</p>
<p>Congrats to all those accepted.</p>
