yes, BC, Georgetown, and Villanova all are (but don't forget, I truly believe ND is superior to all 3) - I think a school like Duke would be a more favorable comparison though.

Check out University of Portland in Portland, OR. Curriculum is similar, sense of community too and the sports revolves around soccer--their women's soccer is like ND football.

Just returned from freshman orientation at ND. The University does a great job. We visited Rice last summer and it was very similar in appearance to ND. Half the size, but with a similar look and feel. Rice is worth checking out if you are interested in Houston.

Rice, Duke, Dayton, UMich, USC, BC, Georgetown, .... the list goes on.
What specifically are you looking for? Sports, Academics, or size or all three.
Personally there is no school out there like ND which has all three but some can offer comparison.

kmac2712--Rice's academics are very similar as well as residential living. No fraternities! No, sports does not play into this comparison.

i know rice has sick baseball, but their football is not so good. seems like notre dame has more well rounded students into sports and the students at rice have the no play work hard attitude.
