Runner_Dean, be aware that education is not a major at ND. There is a minor, however, called Education, Schooling, and Society. The minor consists of two required courses and three electives (for a total of 15 credits). Note that the ESS program does not give you the certification required for elementary and secondary teaching, it's more learning about teaching rather than learning how to teach. If a certification is what you're after (how to teach), you can take courses at St. Mary's College through ND's College of Arts and Letters.

The program you describe is ACE (Alliance for Catholic Education), which is - based on what I've heard - a difficult program to get into. It's a program for which you apply during your senior year. However, if you are accepted into ACE, they'll pay for your Masters of Education degree and, upon completion of the program, you'll get your teaching license (for the state of Indiana). The ACE program itself does not cost anything, in fact, you'll get paid for it.

Toclafane, thanks for the info
Yea, I knew that there was no major of Education, I just worded the question wrong (late at night the brain does not work well). Also, the info on ACE, which was what I was talking about, helps out

I just have one more question.
I was told when I visited then like 50% of Juniors study abroad, and I really want to study abroad. However, does a semester studying abroad cost more than a semester at ND, or is the same? Basicall, I just want to know how expensive it is to study abroad.
thanks for any help one can give.

There's a $500 or so abroad fee, but for practical purposes, it's the same as a normal semester abroad in terms of tuition. However, every program that does not include a homestay (most non Spanish-speaking programs) receive the same living stipend monthly, regardless of where you are - in other words, the students studying Dublin and London, the two most expensive cities to live in in Europe, receive the same amount of money as those studying in Uganda, which is, reasonably, much cheaper. I only bring this up because it requires you to budget according to the cost of your proposed site of study.

Also, ACE is an entirely separate program from your undergraduate degree at Notre Dame. It is a program that is open to anyone (although primarily young adults that have graduated from college), and as such is very competitive, although Notre Dame graduates do typically have an edge. Check out ace.nd.edu and browse around. The site has tons of information for you to look over.
