<p>Hey guys, just found out that for my year abroad i will be attending the university of Miami to study History and Film.</p>
<p>I wanted to go to a place that was chilled out and fun (i love a good partay) but also has a good educational rep. do you think this is the right choice?</p>
<p>I will only be 20 so i was wondering whether i should get a fake ID (although i hear they are pretty easy to tell if they are fake???)</p>
<p>this might not work in your case, but i remember that a british friend of mine who was born in Dec had an ID that said: 01/12/83 (or something to that effect.) Most American doormen, not knowing that the date is written differently in most countries, let him drink and club for his entire 20th year.</p>
<p>Coming from England, Miami will be a big change. Most people from UK really enjoy the sites, scenery, and parties in and around UMiami. It's a fun place. I doubt your age will interfere with your fun. I don't know anything about Miami's History and Film depts, but it's got a great med school. Go for it!</p>
<p>I have this college book on UMiami, and they talk about the party scene. I'll tell you some of the main points.</p>
<p>It says while most people are at the clubs and bars, there are always a few worthy parties on and off-campus.</p>
<p>Also there are frat parties aswell. But the school newspaper and the radio station also throw house parties and sponsor events, so this spreads the word to everyone on campus,so they are pretty big.</p>
<p>As for fake id's, it seems that almost everyone has one. They just call around to find out which bars/clubs are carding, or to find out which ones don't mind a decent fake id.</p>
<p>Have fun at the U......that is where I hope to be in 08.</p>
<p>hopefully that helped</p>
<p>Cheers guys, you are all a great help</p>
