The 2024–25 Notre Dame Fighting Irish women's basketball team represented the University of Notre Dame during the 2024–25 NCAA Division I women's basketball season. The Fighting Irish were led by fifth-year head coach Niele Ivey and played their home games at Purcell Pavilion in Notre Dame, Indiana as members of the Atlantic Coast Conference.

The Fighting Irish started the season ranked sixth in the AP poll and won their first five games to start the season. This included a 102–58 victory over Purdue and a 74–61 defeat of number three USC. This saw the team rise to third in the rankings ahead of the Cayman Islands Classic. It was ultimately a disappointing trip to the Cayman Islands for the team as they went 0–2 in the tournament. They lost 76–68 to seventeenth ranked TCU and 78–67 to Utah. They dropped to tenth in the rankings following the tournament. The team turned its fortunes around with a return to the US as they defeated fourth ranked Texas in overtime 80–70 in the ACC–SEC Challenge. They also won their ACC opener against Syracuse. A defeat of second ranked Connecticut 79–68 in a rivalry game saw the Fighting Irish return to the number three ranking. The Fighting Irish would spend the next eight weeks holding onto the third ranking. From the Texas game, they went on a nineteen-game winning streak. The streak also included wins over seventeenth ranked North Carolina and Georgia Tech, twenty-first ranked California and eleventh ranked Duke. With the defeat of California, the Fighting Irish rose to second in the rankings, and then to the top spot after a defeat of Pittsburgh. They would only spend one week in at the number one ranking, and in that week they defeated Miami 82–42 and lost to thirteenth ranked NC State 104–95 in double overtime. They fell back to the third spot where they lost to twenty-fourth ranked Florida State 86–81 before defeating twenty-fifth ranked Louisville on the final day of the regular season.

The Fighting Irish finished the regular season 25–4 overall and 16–2 in ACC play to finish in a tie for first place. As the second seed in the ACC tournament, earned a bye into the Quarterfinals where they defated seventh seed California, 73–64. They were defeated in the Semifinals by third seed and eleventh ranked Duke. They received an at-large bid to the NCAA tournament and were the three-seed in the Birmingham 3 region. They defeated fourteen-seed Stephen F. Austin and six-seed Michigan at home to advance to the Sweet Sixteen. There they faced two seed and sixth ranked TCU in a re-match of their Cayman Islands Classic game. They lost again to TCU, this time 71–62 to end their season. The Fighting Irish finished the season with a 28–6 record, and ranked tenth AP poll and ninth Coaches polls.
