Notre Dame Pre-College: We Are World-Class Academics

We Are ... World-Class Academics

You may have heard the refrain "We Are ND" ring out through Notre Dame Stadium on Saturdays in the fall. But what does that mean? For Notre Dame Pre-College Programs, it means world-class academics, as students take part in unparalleled classroom experiences with our faculty in a rigorous college setting.

On campus, Summer Scholars applicants engage in experiential learning, conducting field work, learning in the lab, and gaining essential skills for academic success in one of 23 academic tracks.

With three tracks centered around global issues, Leadership Seminars offers amazing opportunities for students passionate about becoming the next global leaders.

Internationally, students can study abroad in Ireland to learn about Irish history and culture from some of the nation's best known scholars.

In Rome, join world-renowned architecture and anthropology faculty on a study of the built environment, art history, and anthropology during our study abroad program in Rome.

Whichever program you choose, you can be confident that the academics will be world-class because "We are ND."

Students earn one college credit upon completion of our programs.
