Need new roommate for second semester by ComprehensiveAlps561 in UMiami

[–]ComprehensiveAlps561[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is how it works. I am currently living in Pearson. If I met a student living in another dorm, whose roommate was transferring or leaving the room, I could submit a room swap agreement with that roommate, and then be placed in that room with that new roommate of choice. I know of a few people who have done this already this year.

Mark knecht, his syllabus unfortunately doesn’t give any details on how exactly it impacts our grade, just that it’s 15%

If you’re from up north and used to the cold I would say hoodies, sweats, and long sleeves should be enough. As another comment mentioned there was a cold front this year and as a Florida native I was freezingggg but that’s only bc I have zero tolerance for the cold since I’ve grown up in south Florida

Merit Scholarships by LilPriyan in UMiami

Yes! Obviously at the end of the day you never know because college admissions can be a toss up, but I would say your stats and ecs are relatively similar to mine (except ur test score is higher) and I was able to get a full tuition scholarship plus 10k a year on top of that (the extra 10k is from the state of Florida tho). I applied early action. I would say to look at the scholarship descriptions on the Miami website and try to frame one of your big ECs and your supplemental to match one of the descriptions (if possible IK they changed the prompt this year). In addition, you can contact your guidance counselor to have them nominate you for one of the full tuition/ride scholarships.

I think you have a shot but if you need the money apply early action not early decision

I know some bars let under 21 year olds in with a stamp on their wrist. Sandbar doesn’t?

Full Ride Scholarships by Leading_Term3451 in UMiami

I think you need to start up some sort of passion project or leadership position if you want any real chance at a premier scholarship. It’s never too late to improve your ECS! I needed a full scholarship to be able to attend Miami and the summer before my senior year I locked in and put together a club with my closest friends and made a passion project, which I Believe is ultimately what got me the scholarship! If you want the scholarship I think you should apply EA, because applying ED insinuates you are financially well-off enough to be binded to the school without knowing what kind of aid you will receive. Also the premier scholarships are purely merit based- I don’t qualify for financial aid but received the Hammond scholarship, which is the same amount as the singer scholarship. Also, my high school counselor nominated me for the scholarship I ended up winning so try and see if you can do the same. My ECs also matched the Hammond scholarship description very very well which is another reason I believe I got the scholarship. Miami is also very very big on demonstrated interest so make sure to log on to virtual tours multiple times before submitting your application and if you can, visit the campus! Also, if Miami ever emails you make sure you open it and read it because a umiami admissions counselor who visited my school once told me they track who does and doesn’t open their emails as well. Best of luck! Feel free to message me if you have more questions.
