- Where graduates go, as the school itself publishes it. Notre Dame High School's own list (2022 - 2025), enrolled: Colorado (14), USC (13), Loyola Marymount University (11), University of Oregon (11), Chapman (8).
- The UC pipeline here is real. 181 admissions to the top six UC campuses for a class of 316 seniors puts this school in roughly the top 7% of California high schools.
- Elite admits are rare — here and everywhere. Berkeley and UCLA admitted 30 of this class's 766 UC applications. The strong middle campuses — San Diego, Santa Barbara, Irvine, Davis — are where most real UC outcomes happen.
- Worth asking admissions: the school profile. Reach doesn't yet show this school's SAT/ACT or AP results. Every private school produces a counselor's "school profile" for colleges, and most post it online — ask admissions for it. How a school answers says as much as the numbers.

Objective, government-grade data — no school pays us for placement.
No SBAC data for private schools — and that's not the metric you want anyway
California's Smarter Balanced (CAASPP) assessment is administered by the state, by statute, to public & charter schools only. Private schools don't sit for it. That's why the SBAC card is missing on this profile — not a data gap on our side, a deliberate scope of the state's testing program.
For private schools, UC Reach is the stronger academic signal anyway. SBAC measures grade-11 inputs (proficiency on a state standard); UC Reach measures outputs (who actually got into the most selective UCs). For private-school families weighing tuition against college outcomes, the outputs are the relevant signal.
Scroll up to the UC Reach card for Notre Dame High School's 2025 number, statewide percentile, and 5-year trend.
Notre Dame High School sent 766 applications to the six most selective University of California campuses and 23.6% were admitted, producing a UC Reach Score of 57 (top-6 UC admits per 100 seniors, counting a student at each campus that admitted them) — 38 points above the California median of 19, higher than 93% of California high schools. The school produces 9.5 UCLA + UC Berkeley admits per 100 seniors.

Higher than 93% of California high schools (1105 ranked, ≥50 seniors)
Notre Dame High School's UC Reach Score of 57 clears the statewide top-10% cutoff (53) — meaning roughly 57 top-6 UC admits per 100 seniors, well above what most California schools achieve.
In Los Angeles County — a competitive market where the median is already 25 — this still clears the county top-10% bar (56).
For context, the elite tier (top 1%) clears 95 — a gap of 38 pp from where this school sits.
Overall, Notre Dame High School's UC Reach is higher than 93% of California high schools (1105 ranked).
Private-school figures come from the California Private School Affidavit. Per CDE, inclusion in private-school data is not an evaluation, approval, or endorsement of a school.
UC Outcomes Trend — 2018–2025
Class size from CDE grade 12 enrollment. Campus-level data: applicant and admit totals count a student once at EACH campus. A senior admitted to UCLA and UC San Diego adds 2 to the admit total, so the total can exceed the senior class — that is the metric working as defined, not an error. The admit RATE is unaffected: both its numerator and denominator are campus-level.
