mkates, this is true. I know two kids who did not get in as freshmen and then transferred into ND - (Irish80122 is one of them and he posts here sometimes) and they did just as you said. From the get-go they worked with the transfer admissions counselor at Notre Dame in planning their schedules for freshman year with the intent to transfer. They also both averaged about a 3.6 at pretty reputable institutions (Creighton and Miami of Ohio). The Miami of Ohio guy actually transferred FIRST to Holy Cross, then a semester later to ND (long story). But he did have a 3.6 at MU, and continued to do extremely well at HC.

For those truly dedicated to getting a degree from Notre Dame, this is a viable path.
