-Notre Dame is a special place. The quality of people in the administration, as well as teachers and students, sets it apart from any other school in the world. Notre Dame has a stronger focus on ethics and doing things the right way than any other school around. The alumni network is incredible as you will always be a part of the Notre Dame family. I could have gone to many other business schools but Notre Dame was the only one for me. You can't understand truly how special the place is unless you spend a day walking around the campus.
