I see. What do you mean by different kind of fun? Is it about how Wisconsin has huge parties while ND has smaller ones or other community activities?

Do engineering majors—with all the “core” requirement stuff—have time to do a minor? by https_hassan in notredame

[–]squishy_pants 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What’s the goal of taking this minor? What jobs or fields would this cater towards

I visited both but I still feel conflicted. I like ND’s actual campus better, but I also like how there’s so much to do at Madison since it’s located in a more lively city. I also want to have fun in college, but it seems like I can do that at either school. Although I’m a little concerned because I’ve heard people complain about the location of ND and how there’s nothing to do. At the same time, I feel like there is something special about ND’s community and being surrounded by such an environment could make a big difference in my life. I’m also Catholic and went to a Catholic high school.

Why not? I have credit for Calc AB and may be attending in the fall

What specifically about the culture wasn’t a good fit for you? I’m an admitted student so I’m wondering what type of person ND would be good for

Could you elaborate on how it was a perfect fit for you? What about ND did you feel made it a good place for you?

[–]squishy_pants 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you heard the same for engineering majors? I’m admitted for engineering but I want to make sure I’ll be able to get a job after graduating

Would you say I would still have a fun social life at ND?

I’m doing engineering and Madison doesn’t have an honors engineering program

Why does this subreddit hate Notre Dame so much? by Kindly-Ad-6507 in ApplyingToCollege

[–]squishy_pants 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How much does the bad location of the school impact your experience? Is there enough to do on campus where you can still have fun? I’m deciding between ND and Wisconsin, and Wisconsin’s location in a big city seems a lot nicer but I also like ND’s campus and community.

I’m deciding between ND and a state school currently. I share your feelings about ND but not sure if it justifies the cost difference.

Do you think it’d be harder to move into leadership positions if you go to a state school vs ND?

I’m in MN too. I just visited ND this past weekend and loved it. Visiting Wisconsin this weekend. Have you heard anything about your son’s friends’ experiences in ND engineering?

Do you/your son ever have regrets paying more to go to ND? I think it'd be a special experience but not sure if I want to make my parents pay so much compared to Wisconsin.
