We are excited that you are interested in joining the Mount Notre Dame community!

Mount Notre Dame – an exceptional Catholic, college-preparatory high school – embraces the gift of diversity in our students’ academic levels, as well as ethnic, religious, and socioeconomic backgrounds. Our hope is to welcome every young woman who desires a Mount Notre Dame education. Admission acceptance is determined by a committee who carefully reviews each application. Special admission consideration is given to granddaughters, daughters and sisters of MND alumnae, and sisters of current students.

We are in the process of making adjustments to our admissions programs to safely and responsibly navigate COVID-19 for our staff, students and prospective families.

Entrance/Placement Test.  The Catholic Schools Office of the Archdiocese of Cincinnati has waived the 2020 entrance and placement test for the Class of 2025 due to concerns of COVID-19 and the uncertainty of future restrictions placed upon our schools and communities by governing stakeholders.   MND’s admission process will include an online application and review of the applicant’s school records.  Additional specifics will be outlined at a later date.
