<p>Yeah, you'll get in no problem. Scholarship wise, my gues would be the 1/2 scholarship (remember, its only the % of tuition, does not count room and board) and you might be able to get the 3/4 scholarship depending on the applicant pool next year. You need to get your SAT I to 1400 for the 3/4 scholarship (that doesn't include the new writing sectio which Miami did not consider this year, so I don't know if they will consider it next year). if they do consider it and you extrapolate it out, you would probably need somewhere around 2050-2100 on all three sections of the SAT I to qualify for the 3/4 tuition. But you have a strong schedule, great class standing, and good other stats and EC's, so you could probably get it. With the 3/4 scholarship, you would be on the hook for around $16-17K per year after the scholarship is taking off tuitio, that includes everything.</p>
