| I applied early action to Notre Dame last year and religion was ultimately the reason I decided not to go. Students may seem tolerant, and for the most part they are, but as a holiday Catholic and a liberal, I found it very hard to relate to many students. There's definitely a typical ND thought pattern and if you don't mesh with that it may be hard - because people who aren't Catholic/Republican are VERY few and far between. And then's there's the whole lack of divesity issue, but that's another topic. |
