Im applying to ND this year. I really would like to go but I have no clue if my ACT will bring me to a 0.00000001% of acceptance (it was a 26 comp). I have a very good gpa though (3.99 unweight & 5.23 weighted), and I take great interest in my extracurriculars. Well here's hoping (finger cross)

[@mefencamm7199]

Good luck!!

Congrats! Welcome to the ND Family!

[@ElizabethGonzalez-qw1lm]

Love your video. Excellent advice.

[@MaryDaley-h3x]

I was born into a high control environment, only received a kindergarten education if you can call that an education I left with my three daughters so that they could actually attend school. My oldest really wants to go to Notre Dame. She only attended two years of public school. Other than that she’s been in private Catholic school thanks to financial aid. Would this be something she should include on a college essay? We are both embarrassed about this and are very private about it.

[@iorekby]

Fair play to you, that's great you got in but it makes me glad I went to university in Europe. In Europe generally, it's just your academic scores. No one cares about extra curricular. If you want to do say, Engineering degrees, do you have good scores in High School math, engineering and science classes. That's all the universities care about.

[@TheGardenStitch]

I have a 32 on the ACT and a 3.9 gpa and no AP scores I want to send them and I'm SO SCARED

[@Jordanwalker17]

It’s okay to be scared, just stay confident in what you have accomplished thus far!

[@cxthedev9199]

32 ACT is pretty good and the 3.9 gpa. it would help to have some ap's though. atleast 3 or 4

[@omarsacademia1228]

CX The Dev or dual credits I took 2 AP’s and around 3-4 Dual Credit classes and got accepted but I got 4.0 tho

[@omarsacademia1228]

CX The Dev Also sometimes AP classes got study guide. Literally my sophomore Physical E Science study guide was the whole notebook all the notes we took in class + conceptual notes

[@verasofia3439]

I got accepted REA for Class of 2024 and ND is my dream school!!! I'm so excited!!

Hi Jordan. I am curious that Is Notre Dame accpeted transfer applicants from community college ?.

[@Jordanwalker17]

I believe so, I would double check Notre Dame's Website for more info and deadlines

[@alphabetdinosaur2792]

Anh Nguyen they do

[@31spring]

Good video, thanks for sharing

[@lexi7154]

Would you say that the university of Norte dame has a lot of African American students?

[@Jordanwalker17]

I would say no, there are some but I would not consider it a lot by any means. I think the University is trying to increase diversity which is good but they still have a lot of work to do.

[@PeterNguyen-ev3fz]

Bro I'm only a freshman, I don't even know what my GPA is

[@KCganster]

Hey man, go Irish, and where is your hoodie from?

[@Jordanwalker17]

It is a Polo Bear hoodie from Ralph Lauren!

[@scottonspruce]

The volume is too low

[@sherbert9771]

How should I reach out to my admissions representative.

[@Jordanwalker17]

Email is probably the best way.

[@matthewmcgee6874]

You and your grades wet like Jordan! $$$

[@helloooooooooooooooooooooo636]

Just got accepted REA Class of 2027!

[@Jordanwalker17]

Congratulations!! Welcome to the Irish family! ☘️

[@TamimDostyar]

Hey! Congratulations!!! What was your GPA? Can I get into ND with 3.7 in scale of 4.0 GPA?

[@avatellez6036]

Waitlisted :( any advice?

[@Jordanwalker17]

What I would do would be to email your admissions counselor a letter stating (if you think ND is a perfect fit for you) why ND is the perfect fit for you and what the University can do for you and what you can do for the University. I hope this helps and I wish you the best of luck!

[@brucemacsr.6776]

Couldn't get into Keenan huh? (ND '64)

[@Jordanwalker17]

With all due respect, Stanford > Keenan. Go griffins! But North Quad > South Quad.

[@to6ky-m5u]

Thank you

[@danieleggenberger_]

Any tips for boosting your Act score?

[@Jordanwalker17]

Practice tests helped me out the most, it sucks to do them but it definitely pays off.

[@juanmartingomez3747]

Is a 1330 too low

[@Jordanwalker17]

1400-mid1500s is around the middle 50% I believe, it’s not impossible to get in with a 1330 but it will be a little more difficult.

[@bryancueva8044]

A friend got into Stanford with a 1330! If you really want it and they really want you, you’ll get in. Make sure your essays are awesome

[@juanmartingomez3747]

@@Jordanwalker17 yeah didnt get in :(

[@Kevin-it4fh]

@@juanmartingomez3747 didn't get in either with a 1440... Penn State might've actually been a better fit for me and I might actually be happier here, but ND still holds a place in my heart thanks to my grandpa, lol.
