<p>SAT: 1150, GPA: 3.2, My school doesn't rank but id prob guess top 55%, to tell you the truth, im not expecting any scholarships.</p>
<p>You'll get in. My sis got in and went with a 3.4 and 1050 SAT with no ECs except the French Honor Society and Beta. You got chance.</p>
<p>hmmmm. Haha now I'm actually having my doubts cuz i hate to put the financial burden on my parents. I mean they are also paying for my older sis to go to college. Plus lawyers and therapists since they are getting a divorces I mean I really need a scholarship i think. Now i'm not worried about getting in because i really like my second choice, University of Tampa, i know not that great of a school but i like how it is in such an urban environment and all and they have a great business school. haha i'm terrible at making decisions</p>
<p>sorry man, um won't give you one of their scholarships, i guess you need to start looking for independent scholarships and wrrite essays like a maniac</p>
<p>haha that's what i thought. oh well, that's life.</p>
<p>You better get on it my man. The girls in miami are ridiculously beautiful, its not even fair.</p>
<p>hahaha then why would they want me. I mean I'm not saying I'm ugly or anything but I'm sure where there's good lookin chicks, theres good lookin guys and all.</p>
<p>With that 3.5 in APES ur in for sure.</p>
<p>haha what young lady are you talking about??</p>
<p>what other schools have the hottest chicks?</p>
<p>how you know</p>
<p>how safe is UMiami? i know that coral gables is a middle class place, with like the avg income around 90k, but how safe is it REALLY? My parents are scared that i am gonna get mugged, shot, killed, or something.......</p>
<p>i remember when I visited there they had this like blue light phone everywhere on campus so you could pick up and talk to security and they will pick you up immediatly. A lot of other schools i visited had that too...</p>
<p>USF had that everywhere and where u stood u could see 3 others close by....</p>
<p>Yale has that same blue-light system.</p>
<p>yeah im scared cause tuition is ridiculously expensive and i need some type of scholarship...let me know when u find out whether u amde it :-)</p>
<p>I just got a letter today from UNiv South Florida saying that they will give me $9,000 in scholarship money. I already got accepted into tampa and fau but i really want miami. 13 days...</p>
<p>Good luck, I applied EA but it's not a top school of mine b/c of many of the things mentioned. To start, I'm a female so the "hot chicks" aren't any benefit to me and the outrageous party scene is somewhat intimidating... I have two friends down there there are pressuring me to come down there and party with them(both males, obviously loving it) Also, it does seem quite expensive but it IS miami.</p>

<p>On-campus living is probably alright. Within Florida, Miami has a reputation for being one of the more dangerous cities.</p>
<p>Personally, I wouldn't go to UM. Not just because of Miami the city, but because I've been to the school and I don't think it's worth nearly what it costs. </p>
<p>But make your own decision, of course.</p>
