Plain and simple. Keep your GPA and ACT/SAT scores up. If you can graduate top 5% of your class with a 1400 on the SAT, you have a decent shot of getting in. Keep top 5% and crack 1500 and you are almost assured admission. If your score is in the 1200-1350 range, you still have a slim shot, but you better couple your academics with some serious extra-curriculars.

I chose ND was because I was accepted early (non-binding decision) and was recruited for varsity athletics.
Be sure to visit the school during the winter if you are from a warm climate. While visiting during a football weekend in September is fun, it is nothing like a bitter winter day in the middle of February. Either way, also make sure that you are able to stay with a student for a night (you can do this through the registrar's office) and see what it is like to be a student.
