Moose162,

I believe that some of these people are oblivious to what RD is. So far, I only think that Early Action and Early Decision applicants heard.

Um.. I'm well aware of what regular decision is, and I applied as a regular decision candidate and received a decision over a month ago.

Wow i feel bad for applying to Miami after reading this thread. I applied simply because it was on the common app. and the communications school seemed good. I decided to go to the University of Maryland for journalism instead, but for the past few weeks I had Miami in the back of my mind. The small classes and personable factor almost had me, but I'm glad those of you who really wanted to get in got in. Anyone wait listed should know that I'm not going so there's your spot!

good luck to all!

by the way, it truly is a toss up. I got in with a 1210 math/verbal and a 3.85 GPA. My EC's were strong but I was 100 points below the average SAT score. And to top it off I got 15,000 a year. So nobody should feel bad, it's just what they're looking for these days, you just gotta' hope its you.

Adamk1313-

My S and you are mirror images - he chose Miami's School of Communications over Maryland's School of Journalism. Question - the 15,000 you were offered by Miami - was that merit-based or need-based?

Thanks and good luck in Maryland!
