For international student, do they let us know the amount of scholarship and if someone has gotten or can get, can we get full scholarship notification at the moment of Early Decision or are we notified later because premium scholarship are announced later so how we may finalize are ED agreement/decision?

I have been doing extensive research on all of my colleges and have gone into the rabbit hole of college reviews on websites such as Niche. I have also seen some stuff about how Niche is inaccurate compared to the actual college experience so I want to hear your guys’ BRUTALLY honest reviews on your college experience at umiami, especially if you are a pre med/biology student because that is what I want to get into. I appreciate your time and thought.
Hey, has anyone had any experience taking HCS 217 Medical Terminology with Deleon? It's completely online and there are not many RateMyProf reviews for this class.
Anyone else get an email saying decisions will be released at the end of the month? Any idea if it could be sooner?
hoping for a premier scholarship! (pm me for stats) i was just wondering if reaching out to an admissions counselor would boost my chances if they can get to know me/if it shows demonstrated interest. on one hand, like i said, it’s demonstrated interest but on the other hand if they know they’ve got me and that i’d be willing to go without aid due to me reaching out and showing that much interest, would i be actually less likely to earn one? because the point of them is to attract impressive students that would otherwise go elsewhere but if i make it so it looks like my top choice would they figure they don’t need to give me aid?? applied ea btw.
My dream school is UMiami and im applying in 2025 for fall 2026. As well, I am an international, first year student. I want to study international relations, politics, global government. My current gpa is a 4.0, i’ve taken the TOEFL and pass it, I am a UNModel fanM, I participated in 8 and I won 7. I'm going to sit for the SAT, I have lots of activities and honors. I'm going to graduate school with honors. How many chances do you think I have of getting in? What should i do this year to increase my chance of getting in?
Does anyone know when the results are coming out? They didn't specify a specific date on the website (they just said at the beginning of December) so I'm a bit tense 😭
Hey all, have any of you guys gotten any notification about whether you will receive a dorm on campus or not? Or when will we get notification?
I'm applying as a transfer into the business school with a 2.75 GPA (it should be at about a 3.0 after I finish my current semester classes)...What are my chances at getting in? Has anybody been accepted into the business school with lower than a 3.0 GPA?
*Out of state student
Does anyone know when notifications for premier scholarships get sent out?
anyone know when EA decisions come out
Hey everyone, I have the option to come to UMiami for my exchange year next year, I was wondering if people would recommend? I’m currently studying economics and communications in London. I’m able to apply for either economics or communications and I’m currently leaning towards communications as it will probably be easier. All opinions and advice welcomed!! Thank you x
Hi everyone I’ve been planning to apply to transfer to UMiami for Fall 2025 and I just wanted to share my stats to maybe get some feedback or my likelihood of getting in and if there is anything I could do to increase my chances?
Stats: -Sophomore with a little over credit hours (would be around 45 after this semester) -GPA: 3.7 -Major: Psychology (with a gpa of 3.9) -I am part of my current university student government -I am part of a philanthropic organization as well that raises money for hospitals in my city (I live in KY) -I am also a research assistant for a psychology research lab -I worked for my university housing over the summer
I also did extra curriculars in high school but I don’t know if those are worth mentioning. I do plan to ask for a letter of recommendation from my lab instructor. Any feedback or thoughts on if there is anything I can do to stand out will be appreciated! Thank you!
Does anyone know the percent acceptance for nursing direct admit? Thanks!!
I’m applying for a masters in music therapy and I am confused on the requirements for the pre-screening videos. I’m supposed to make 3 separate videos to submit, 1 singing and playing piano, 1 singing and playing guitar and 1 on my main instrument? Also, I’m applying for voice so my main instrument would be considered voice and the 3-5 min video should be of me singing? Also, are there any requirements on how the video camera should be set up? These are the only instructions I see which aren’t very specific.
hi guys ! i am wondering if anyone here is currently in the fnp msn program and could tell me more about it please ? :3 i am interested in the pros and cons, personal likes and dislikes, clinicals, sim, the professors, the academic environment, and the actual admission process ! thank you so much !!! <3
edit: also curious about how the actual students are? some nursing schools have a clique-y, very high school-esque environment and I am wondering if umiami is anything like that cuz my current undergrad nursing program (nyu) isn’t anything like that >w<“ it’s a very academically rigorous environment w extremely kind hard workers and i am looking for that in my future master’s program
Just wanted to ask how other early decision applicants are feeling right now! Decisions send out in less than a month, I get nervous just thinking about it
I’m applying ed1 and im not requesting any aid. will this help my application or does financial aid have no impact on acceptance?
i’m currently in my first year of community college looking to transfer in to the school of communication next fall. i’m super worried i’m not gonna get in cause miami is my absolute #1 choice lol. i want to experience 3 years at miami if i can which is why i’m choosing to transfer after a year.
my stats:
high school GPA: 2.0
current GPA: 3.72
test scores: optional (did really bad)
extracurriculars:
spring video production internship
founder and president of film club at college
managed video production business
worked a part time job for 6+ months (20+ hours a week)
doordash (about 10 hours a week)
written 5+ short film scripts
have had short film shown at a film festival
no awards
i feel like i need to do so much more. i also feel like miami is such a random school when it comes to admission too. i might not be as much of a well-rounded student because all my extracurriculars have to do with just film.
I'm looking to transfer here for this upcoming spring semester. The deadline was November 1st but UMiami says they still accept applications until the spots are full. Has anybody applied as a spring transfer or late application into the business school? Whatre the chances they still have space?
Hey,
How is the master degree program in real estate at Umiami? Can you describe your experience? would you recommend it to me ?
How are the classes and professors ? (good or bad) and why
How is life for graduate students ? Is it possible to make friends for older students? ( I am so social )
Also, I do surfing is there a surfing club at Umiami
I am so excited to go to this school. I graduated from California!!
I applied to Umiami under early action as an international student wanting to be considered for scholarships. My counsellor had originally submitted combined 9+10 grade (matric) result because that is how the results work in Pakistan.
Umiami asked me to submit my separate 9th transcript and my counsellor did that through common app and even emailed them my transcript!!!
The transcript status was still "Awaiting" on my applicant portal and they ended up deferring my application for regular decision because of my missing transcript. It's useless for me to considered for regular decision because I won't be considered for scholarships.
I worked so hard on my application and now this! What should I do? I'm planning to call them in an hour. Hopefully it will work 😔
does anybody know the date when decisions come out for early app?
what are your thoughts about it?
How hard is to get in Umiami Architecture?
