History, Affiliations and Rankings

The University of Notre Dame began late on the bitterly cold afternoon of November 26, 1842, when Rev. Edward Sorin, a 28 years old French priest, and seven companions, all members of the newly established Congregation of Holy Cross, took possession of 524 snow-covered acres in the Indiana mission fields that the Bishop of Vincennes had given them. Father Sorin, a man of vivid imagination, titled his budding university "L'Université de Notre Dame du Lac" (The University of Our Lady of the Lake) in honour of Our Lady in his home tongue. The University was thereafter officially chartered by the Indiana legislature on January 15, 1844. The Higher Learning Commission of the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools has granted the University of Notre Dame accreditation. The University has affiliations with the ACCU, NAICU, the Universities of Research Association and the 568 Group. US News and World Report 2022 ranks Notre Dame at #284 globally and at #19 in the US.
