I’m relatively new to the college admissions process…one kid down, four to go. When my third down the line is applying, in 4 years from now, I won’t be relying an Bishops comments from 2015 as a true indicator as things do change over time. That is what I mean when I say comments will become outdated.
@waitingmomla “we need to do a better job finding high-ability, low-income students to apply” is part of NDs initiative to “expand the ND family”.
I appreciate your perspective on the numbers.
As applications rise annually and reported admissions stats continue to increase…imo, it is reasonable to conclude that it is becoming more difficult for both legacy and non legacy to be admitted.
My MIL gave me an ND admission brochure from the early 90s. If I can find it, I’m curious what legacy admit rate was back then. I recall the overall admit rate was 42%. She also gave me Saint Mary’s admissions brochure from the 1960s…very fun to see. Things do seem to evolve over time.
