Hey everyone, new person here. Glad I found you all.

My son received his acceptance last Monday. He’s already had me send in his deposit as Miami became his first choice. here’s his stats:
4.02 GPA
1480 SAT (790 math/690 Verbal)
Ranked 10th in his class (365 in Class)
6 AP classes (so far two 4’s and a 5) with 3 more this year
Several Honors classes
Taking 2 classes this year at a local college for H.S. credit
Going to major in Comp. Science
Played soccer 3 years, not this year
Has worked 20 hours ave./week for over three years

AND he got one of the 3/4 scholarships which really made us proud and happy (and enabled him to say "I’m going there!!) And to top it all off, one of his best friends also was accepted this past week with a 1/3 scholarship and they are planning on trying to room together (at least they won’t have to worry about getting a nightmare roommate).

Hope to run into some of you at Orientation.
