<p>I found out that I’m 10 points off of consideration for the $16k scholarship. Fuaaarrrkk, needed a 1350! I would be considered for an $8k collegiate scholarship with my stats though. </p>
<p>Hopefully I can get the score up, the 1990 somewhat disappointed me. Glad to know that I can likely get into the U, I think I’ll really like it.</p>
<p>That section of the website you were looking at in terms of what scholarships you would be eligible for is severely outdated. Those scholarships don’t exist anymore; they have a flexible University Scholarship that is basically tailored to your specific case in terms of the amount of money. They look at your application holistically, so you’re not cut off from any set amount solely based on your SAT/ACT or GPA.</p>
<p>I see. Well I hope I get some kind of scholarship then.</p>

<p>teenbodybuilder will def get into umiami and Georgetown. a 1990 is EXCELLENT! It is in the top percentiles! Will def get into a top college with the 8 ap course load and terrific sat.</p>
<p>Not sure about GTown. Everything just seems a little below average for it. My dad has a very high ranking position there, so he may be able to pull some strings.</p>
hey guys I need some help. I am
also trying to get into University of Miami. it is my #1 choice for a school and I don’t want to go anywhere else and I will do whatever I can to get in. I have not taken my SAT’s yet but I will be this next month. but my unweighted gpa is a 3.5 and my weighted is a 4.3 on a 4.0 scale. I have taken a large sum of dual enrollment classes an received an A for every class I’ve taken earning a 4.0 GPA at my community College. my courses have been rigorous. since my freshman year all of my courses are honors or higher. this year I am taking all honors and 1 AP and next year senior year I will be taking 4 AP’s and 2 honors. if I get a really good or a relatively good SAT score and have an awesome essay do you guys think I would have a good shot at getting in. I really am willing to do anything I can to get into UM
@christyjack1249 Can you please make a new discussion for this? This is a very old thread, it’s better to make a new one.
Did you ever get in ?
Were you able to get accepted?
Because I am a junior now and am willing to do anything to get in to UM.
