<p>I’ve visited both Notre Dame and Holy Cross. Worchester is similar to south bend in many aspects. The campus is really nice and has a similar real college feel like ND. However, the campus is like half the size of ND. It kind of felt like a little ND on a hill. And, you get many more east coast kids at Holy Cross (which is either a good or bad thing depending on you situation). Ultimately, I am not applying to Holy Cross because it is too small and too far away. The kids there additionally seem to be on a different wavelength. Overall, it is still a great school!</p>
