University of Notre Dame, MBA Class of 2016 答疑帖

ND-Mendoza

Hello friends,

Welcome to Notre Dame thread!

We are first year students of Class 2016 in University of Notre Dame - Mendoza College of Business.  

Recently we received many inquiries about Notre Dame, therefore, we are opening this thread to answer any of your question or concern about the MBA program of Notre Dame, and to share our experiences with those who are interested in our program.

For your reference, here are some threads created by our students and alums.

A brief introduction to Notre Dame:
Our business school rank the 23rd according to the latest rankings released by US News. The comprehensive ranking of Notre Dame is 16th in the States (US News) while our undergraduate business programs rank 11th.
This year our program recruited 130 students, including 30% international students and 30% female.  Tens of local students got their undergraduate degree in this campus.  We call them double domers.

Our class is highly diversified. We have Guinness Record breaker, Martial arts Champion, Producer for Olympic Games, Soccer player, baseball player, dozens of veterans, etc. It is pretty cool to have class with those people who have done so many badass things, right?

Let us share with you some other breath-taking facts about our school life!

1) The whole university is crazy about its FOOTBALL!  As a member of Notre Dame Community, this is the only thing that you should never miss during your school life! And the seasonal ticket would only cost you 250 dollars, the cheapest football tickets you could ever get! LOL  For fall season, almost every Saturday would become a special holiday! Be prepared for that, since it is really inspiring to hear everybody around you cheering "Go Irish!!!"  We have "Touch Down Jesus" library and "First Down Moses".  The helmets of our football players are paint with real GOLD.






2) We have a great Career Development Coach team.  They are very experienced and skillful to help you with your resume, pitches and interview skills. Even though we've just started our program for two weeks, they provided many practical information to strengthen our competitiveness and position ourselves in the US job market.  The biggest challenge for international students is our working VISA sponsorship, but the chance is that Notre Dame has a great reputation in the States and every year we have many on campus intern/job opportunities.  

3) Also, we highly value the social responsibility in our candidates.  Probably 90% of domers are givers. We help each other during study life, so that you will be able to build comarade friendship after two years with your classmates.  Even when you reach out to the alum for informational interview, the responsive rate is pretty high. Once you are in, you will always be a member of the big family!  Our program also provides many volunteer activities do to help with the South Bend community!

4) Another important fact, of course, is her beautiful campus! You might have concern about her location, but after several weeks, you would definitely be in love with this campus.  Especially during the fall season, the campus will be decorated by the colorful leaves.  

We rank No. 16 as the one of the most beautiful campuses in America.

请问在校期间，有没有和公司合作的project开放给学生参与，比如inhouse strategy

糸色爱

明天就要面试了，申请的MSA，没有什么leader的经验，希望能从平时的team project里提炼出自己的leadership ability。如果大家有什么的提议的话，请尽管砸过来！

貌似打错字了，应该是圣心教堂。。。

参观过校园很漂亮，圣母教堂是我在美国见到最大最美的教堂。可惜在supply chain和operation方面似乎没有很对应的学科设置，恐怕只能擦肩而过了

谢谢你的详细的答复！其实我当年是在Notre Dame交换的，所以对基本生活费大概也清楚，只是不知道MBA的话 ...

social 的费用这个要看你的安排了，可以为0，你要是每周都跑纽约的话，那费用就不好估算了
