<p>...My father is a graduate of Notre Dame, and growing up, since the age of 6, I've known I have anted to go to Notre Dame. Unfortunately, I really was not the A-student so many other kids are and finished high school with a 3.15 UW GPA and only a 1250/1900 SAT score. Anyways, I applied and am now waiting for a response. What's the only thing worse than this wait? </p>
<p>Two nights in the last two weeks I have had dreams that I got into Notre Dame. I don't really remember the first one, but the second one was last night. I dreamt that my dad brought in a giant envelope from outside, from the University, and when he gave it to me he was saying "you did it!" and singing the Notre Dame fight song.</p>
<p>I want this so bad, and so does my dad, but I just don't think my grades make the cut...but who knows, right?</p>
<p>It's one of those things that I can envision myself getting the acceptance letter and driving all the way to my parents offices just to show them, but also have to keep realistic expectations that maybe it just wasn't meant to happen, but I'm glad you guys have experienced the same thing - keep me posted on how it shakes out</p>
<p>Before I was deffered early action, every night for a a couple of weeks I had dreams about getting the acceptance letter. Each time I would wake up to the same dissapointment of it not being real. I hope this time my fate may be better. Good luck to all of you , just trust in God's will.</p>
<p>hm, yeah, good advice NDHopeful. It does make things easier when you remember that we'll all end up where God wants us, and He knows what He's doing a bit more than we do.</p>
<p>hmm good luck to you, but then again if you really want to come here and are waitlisted and/or subsequently end up going to another school you can always transfer.</p>
