University of Miami Class of 2020 EA Discussion/Results

Accepted from FL for Microbiology!

Accepted with $25k a year presidential scholarship!!! (from California)

@caliapplicant North Carolina!

Admitted to study Ecosystem Science and Policy! So happy, but I’m going to have to work on my financial aid a bit- the $11,000 merit scholarship is nice, but not quite enough!

I didn’t get a decision yet :frowning:

Deferred

My son got a $26k per year presidential scholarship. Does anyone know what the scholarship programme includes besides the money (eg, is there an honors program that goes with it?) thanks

Accepted undeclared to arts and sciences with $19k per year presidential scholarship! Stats were 4.20 gpa, 2120 SAT

@samylda What are your stats if you don’t mind asking?

Accepted OOS (North Carolina)
3.8 Unweighted 4.4 Weighted
27 ACT
A lot of leadership, community service and I play two varsity sports
Black (Haitian-American Female)
Didn’t receive any notification of scholarships yet but I applied to the George W. Jenkins scholarship (full ride) back in December.

I’m really considering Miami but the financial aid package needs to be stellar.

To all that got deferred or rejected, I promise you that this is not the end. It may feel devastating now but in retrospect, everything happens for a reason.
