University of Miami

Hello,
I was wondering if the University of Miami was generous with scholarships and aid, as I love the school, but cost of attendance plus air fare would just be too much. Are they more need based or merit based and do they offer full rides?

They have a mix of need-based and merit, and they do have full ride and other generous scholarships.

You can look at CDS or collegedata.com to see aid statistics.

Based on my previous experience, as well as my peers, with applying to UMiami, financial aid isn’t as generous as a number of other universities. There a few great merit scholarships and grants given out to a few students each year though.
