Recently we had the pleasure of having the University of Notre Dame du Lac, which is simply known as Notre Dame. It’s a private Catholic University located in Indiana, United States. This university was founded by Father Edward Sorin back in 1842, and was an all-male institution; it wasn’t until 1972 that the university started enrolling women.
At Notre Dame they are organized into different departments, colleges and schools, they are: School of Architecture, College of Arts and Letters (which is the oldest, established in 1842), Mendoza College of Business, College of Engineering, First Year of Studies, The Graduate School, The Law School and the College of Science. Notre Dame is well known for their sports programs, they currently offer football, basketball, tennis, fencing, soccer, cross country, golf, hockey, swimming and diving.
In terms of costs, Notre Dame’s estimates student expenses for international students for the academic year 2011-2012 being of $54,800. Therefore it’s important to keep in mind that year after year the expenses increases. However, Notre Dame does offer financial aid, which you can find more on this on the link below:
Notre Dame’s early action application deadline is on November 1st, and its regular application deadline is on 31st December. Some of the required examinations are SAT I: Reasoning Test (1390-1490 on Critical Reading and Maths only) or ACT (32 – 34). The university encourages their prospective students to apply through Commonapp, however if you want to print your application and mail it to them, feel free to do so. The TOEFL or IELTS is needed too.
But, if you’re interested on going to study in Australia, there are three University of Notre Dame campuses. They are located in Fremantle, Broome and Sydney.
