Saint Mary’s College

About

Because of the proximity and rich tradition common to Notre Dame and Saint Mary's, the two institutions share many activities in the area of academics as well as social events, student organizations, and community service projects. The two institutions maintain a cooperative program permitting a limited number of courses to be taken at the neighboring institution. The partnership is one that both institutions cherish. Students from either school can register in courses based upon the established ND-SMC MOU criteria. St. Mary’s students are not eligible to earn a major or minor at Notre Dame, unless admitted to the established dual degree program in engineering. The standard is set by the MOU and accreditation. Notre Dame does not certify majors or minors on the transcripts of St. Mary's students who are non-degree at Notre Dame.
