<p>university of miami, florida fits many of these! they even consider for merit scholarships with a 31+ ACT i believe</p>
<p>good academics and possesses a fairly good reputation.: miami is ranked in the top 50 universities in the U.S.</p>
<p>Size does not matter as much, but my ideal would be around 10,000-20,000: miami has approx. 10,000 undergrads</p>
<p>Prefer warm weather… I like in Phoenix and feel that 100 is ok weather- 90 is ideal.; def. warm weather </p>
<p>School with no religious affiliation-or ones which do not require me to take any theology courses.; has no religious affiliation and general distrib. requirements so you wouldn’t have to take a religious course</p>
<p>Not a total party school; I do not mind drinking in moderation but if 70% of the student population gravitate to hard liquor every weekend, then there is a problem.; lots of students don’t party at UM, they have living and learning communities and special dorms with other focuses</p>
<p>social scene should not be dominated by the Greek scene- I want college to be an experience where I find myself, and a school that is Greek dominated would lessen my choices, I believe.; greek scene is under 20% of student pop.</p>
<p>let me know if you have any questions! i’ll be a freshman there in the fall! :)</p>
