| What a coincidence?, LOL
I just transferred from Maryland in the Spring to Miami (after my 1st sem of college). I find Miami to be a much better school, academically and so many other factors outweigh Maryland.
Nah. I'm not waiting. I was accepted as a transfer for Spring 2008, so I'm already a CANE.
My friend from NY still has yet to heard but she found out that her moronic school never sent over her transcript, but hopefully she will know soon.
HS Stats for those who want to know:
3.7 UW/ 4.2 W
1220 SAT/ 28 ACT
Many Extracurriculars
Hook: special circumstances
1st sem GPA @ UMD College Park:
3.3 GPA; 3.7 GPA before Final Examinations and missed an A by inches in one of my courses.
Expected GPA 4 2nd:
3.6-3.8 GPA |

| you go to myum and set up your alias. the e-mail system is kind of weird... it actually goes through your normal e-mail address if you want it to. It should automatically be firstinitial.lastname@umiami.edu and it should work a day or two after you pay the deposit.
Jeremy did you get accepted into frost as a transfer? | |

| CONGRATS JEREMY!!!!
You wanted Miami more than anyone else and I think we are all happy for you.
This should get you through finals week now!
By the way, we went to visit our son last month and I noticed a UM Frost car decal in the bookstore. I think it is waiting for you! | |

| Yeah, I'm going to Miami. I absolutely loved it when I visited. I am a biochem major so I'm in the arts and sciences building. That is impressive you got accepted to Frost.. they accept less than 10 people don't they? | |
