Last minute Merit scholarship yesterday has us undecided at the 11th hour. Deadline is tomorrow.

Thanks, MotherofDragons,
I loved the UM, and while I have never visited any other schools south of NJ before, what I took from our visit is how dynamic and multi-cultural the university was, and not any particular southern influence, unless being overwhelmingly helpful and professional are southern attributes. I cannot say enough good things about Miami. Even our post-decision emails from them have been so gracious and kind.

We definitely support our son’s decision, but closing the other door was very difficult. Here’s to the future!!

My oldest son ended up at a school that he had not thought about. They gave him money and really wanted him there. They have offered free tutoring and have been great to him. I would choose the one with the money if he can fit in there with the kids.

Miami felt more like a Latin American city than anything else. So many Latin American tourists, and the Cuban presence.
