I’m currently a freshman in Boston College’s Carroll School of Management, and although I never applied to Notre Dame, I’m sick of listening to people say that Notre Dame was their top choice. Coming out of school, I never thought about applying to ND, and now it seems as if everyone here applied there. I kind of regret not applying there and was wondering whether or not you guys think I could have gotten into Mendoza.

I went to Phillips Exeter Academy in New Hampshire, a private boarding school. The average GPA to get into Boston College was a 3.31 and the average SAT was a 2026. Out of 170 students, 90 had been accepted over the past five years to Boston College. At Notre Dame, the average GPA was a 3.36 with a 2193 SAT. Out of 21 kids, 6 had been accepted. I was a first generation, low income minority with a 3.1 GPA and 1850 SAT with various leadership positions and Varsity sports. I’m not really that happy at BC and am considering applying to transfer to ND.
