Maximum Amount of Financial Aid

Attention Students & their Families:


If you have not yet filled out the FAFSA, make sure to do so as soon as possible.


In order to be reviewed for the maximum amount of aid, you must complete it by tomorrow, March 1st.


By completing it by March 1st, you will be reviewed for the maximum amount of institutional aid, state aid (Marylanders), and federal aid.


To all you Marylanders, make sure that you get that FAFSA in so you don't miss out on MD money as it begins to be distributed.

Congratulations Dr. Conneely!  We look forward to this next stage in Notre Dame's history; we know we are in great hands.

100 Nights

This past Thursday was 100 Nights, one of the most beloved traditions at Notre Dame of Maryland University.

100 Nights before graduation, Seniors gather for a cocktail hour with each other as well as their favorite faculty & staff (by invitation only), followed by dinner as a class.

These beautiful young women are some of our Student Ambassadors, the student experts on NDMU, who help the Office of Admissions with visits and events.

They were all very excited to celebrate 100 Nights but we are so sad that they will be leaving us in less than 100 days!

The Class of 2012's theme was "Breakfast at Tiffany's."  You can see the lovely centerpieces below; "Tiffany's boxes" and all.

Congratulations Class of 2012!

Take advantage of this scholarship!

Through the "Sunflower Initiative," there is an inaugural scholarship that is being offered for students interested in attending a Women's College.  


What is great about this application is that it statistically increases your chance of receiving this scholarship because it is only for young ladies interested in a liberal arts college for women.  
Details of the scholarship are: "will provide a highly motivated young woman who is passionate about learning and eager to attend a woman’s college with a scholarship to a woman’s college in the United States or Canada.  She must possess a stellar high school record, strong references, and a desire to make a contribution to society, as well as a strong sense of self."


The application deadline in March 15th, and we would highly recommend applying for it!  A little bit goes a long way.  Along with an initial award from NDMU and then further aid after the FAFSA is processes, college becomes more affordable, little by little.  


Also, don't forget that we are still accepting applications for the Fall and awarding scholarships.


Go to http://www.thesunflowerinitiative.com/thesunflowerinitiative.com/scholarships to apply for the scholarship and

Notre Dame Day 2012

Notre Dame Day 2012

 Follow All Truth

See All Beauty

Be All Goodness

At Notre Dame, we have a wonderful tradition called Notre Dame Day.  This year's theme was words from our Honor Code, which can be seen above.  

One of the things I love most about Notre Dame is its traditions.  

Whether it is Christmas Dinner (which you can read more about in earlier posts), 

Honors Convocation, Notre Dame Day, or 100 Nights.

During Notre Dame Day, the community gathers for a delicious lunch (cupcakes included) 

to acknowledge  student organizations, students who have achieved excellence in their department of study, as well as two Staff awards.  On Tuesday, we gathered to "celebrate our common purpose, to remember our rich heritage, and to recognize the achievements of the University community."

We are so proud of all the students who won awards on Tuesday

 and we are especially proud of our very own Campus Visit & Event Coordinator, 

Stephanie Cavill, who was awarded the SSND Mission & Ministry Award.

If you have not visited campus, you can always arrange your visit with the amazing Stephanie Cavill by clicking Here!  You can RSVP for our Get Acquainted Day on February 20th or arrange your own personalized visit.

We hope to see you soon!

Go Blue and White! :)
