| I totally understand you..I always thought it was odd that I thought so much about college at a young age but now I'm glad that I did. I think I'm going to go to the University of Florida if I don't get in and then I'll try to transfer in. One of the transfer admissions counselors from Notre Dame said they would even help me pick out classes to take at UF and my chances would be much higher if they saw that I had followed through with their reccomendations. If you keep in contact with the transfer admissions counselor throughout your freshman year of college (this is assuming that you do not get in, God forbid!) they will recognize your name in the spring when they see your app..(there are only 2 transfer counselors, and not a tremendous amount of transfer apps, compared to freshman) and realize that you have worked extremely hard and I think that means something. That as opposed to an application with a name they've never seen before and know nothing about that person or how badly they want to go to Notre Dame. Both transfer admissions counselors have emailed me back and I get the impression that they are ready and willing to help out anyone who has a real desire to go to Notre Dame. (like us and everyone else on this board : ) I can't remember if you have posted stats before but if you work really hard, with a desire that you have, then there is no doubt in my mind that you will end up at Notre Dame. |
