Okay – here’s the thing. I’m going to be honest and I hope you all will be, too. (Keep in mind, that we have not been to campus but I’ve spoken to parents whose kids go there or have transferred from there — or both.)
I’ve been told by multiple people that Miami U is known as “J. Crew U.” and unless your kid is good-looking, social, and popular, they won’t fit in. Also, heard that they are big partiers/drinkers – like 5-6 nights out of the week. My son is the opposite of every single one of these characteristics. So, I’ve sort of ruled it out even though the size and attractiveness of the campus is quite appealing (to me).
