There is something exceedingly special about Notre Dame. Whether it is the place or the people, an aura of excellence and tradition exudes from its grounds. The idea of a university founded on principle and the concept of people-driven academics drives me to say that Notre Dame is one of the best there is. The caliber of its student body is exceptional and its dedication to the undergraduate experience is phenomenal. Even if you aren't Catholic or even religious, if you respect a body of people who are passionate, kind, intellectual, and just want to help, then the University of Notre Dame du Lac is the place for you!
The thing that stood out to me about the University of Notre Dame was my professors! They have all been willing to go the extra mile in order to teach, be it holding long office hours and staying later or staying back long after class has ended, especially before exams. Their passion not only for the subject but for our education really helped me through some tough courses. Furthermore, the community is excellent. Notre Dame is truly a family, and dorm communities are very distinct and strong. Each dorm has its own mascots and colors and become a part of a person's identity. It is similar to Greek life but without the negatives of rushing and hazing. Everybody is very kind and inclusive.
I love the school so much - football, bars, community, everything - but the social scene can be difficult. Maybe it is because I just had bad luck, but I noticed it is a very cliquey school. There are a lot of MEGA rich people that go to this school that all stay together and also a lot of weirdos. Not ideal!
I still love the school though.
