<p>Within the academic and business communities, Miami has always had a fantastic reputation. Here in the suburban Chicago area, many students who didn’t get in, or couldn’t afford Ivy league schools opt for Miami.</p>
<p>Miami is primarly an undergraduate university. Only about 2000 of the 16000 students are grad students. As a result, most of the money, resources and opportunities go to the undergrads - including research opportunities. In addition, almost all classes are taught by professors. USN&WR also mentioned elsewhere in its publication some of the other programs for undergrads such as LLC’s, special writing program/emphasis and senior capstone course requirement.</p>
