i thought i had a pretty good chance of getting into miami..but i see i must have been mistaken. reading some peoples stats that dont think they can get in and they are so much higher than mine..

i have a 1990 sat score R 730 M 550 W 710
gpa-3.5 weighted
all honors courses
3 aps and 2 college courses
work experience
3 sports- 2 varsity
and some other ecs
applied EA..
have any feedback on chances?

You still don't have too much to worry about...your SAT scores are great and they will probably help quite a bit..the only prob I see is your GPA b/c UM's uses weighted GPA, with their average being a 4.1

I wouldnt stress over this too much...UM is probably a match for you (50/50 chances), tho not a safety...just make sure that you have applied to other colleges that you consider matches and safeties...Good luck!

thanks for the reassurance..i appreciate it very much. miami is my top choice and im worried about the entire acceptance process.

I think that you will be admitted,but you won't get a lot of merit money.

I think it's a good match for you, but as for scholarships, only a 1/4 tuition possible.

thankfully i wasnt banking on any money at all..possible need based but not much

You'll get in for sure. I had worse stats and got in. I didn't apply for fin. aid though and I think that made a diff.
