<p>Please realize that there is still hope for you...ND admitted over 40% of its students that made it to the waitlist last year, good luck to you all...also remember that ND is much easier to transfer into than it is to apply to in high school, good luck to all of you.</p>

<p>really? wow, that's fantastic. i think i read somewhere they gave out more acceptances this yr? not sure. does anyone know? has anyone looked at last yr. compared to this yr. and sort of predicted what they think might happen as far as how many on waitlist will get in? definitely want to know, since i'm on the wait list!</p>

<p>They told me they might not even look at the waitlist. But if you choose to stay on the waitlist, UPDATE YOUR INFORMATION!</p>

<p>Here's a link to Notre Dame's Office of Institutional Research <a href="http://www.nd.edu/%7Einstres/home3/index.shtml%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.nd.edu/~instres/home3/index.shtml&lt;/a>
Lots of Reports Posted. Only one problem; you need a Notre Dame "NetID" to view them.</p>

In the past, most of the office's information has been limited to the University's top officials, such as the Office of the Provost and the deans of the colleges. Now, however, much of the statistical information on the Web site is available to any member of the Notre Dame community with a NetID. The goal behind this expanded access is to provide an authoritative source for data-supported decision-making on a broader level and to make the office's resources better known to the University community.
