<p>OHkid,
Not filing FASFA (deadline is missed already) is a huge mistake at Miami U. They strongly recommend (if you read their letters carefully) to file every year to get full range of Merit scholarships. My D. is junior in Honors. Moreover, make sure that you file for Returning student scholarship every year you are at M U. D. has received additional $6500 for sophomore year based on her college GPA and the fact that FASFA was filed. We do not qualify for need based at all, nowhere near. Two huge mistakes that a lot of kids make at Miami are 1. not filing FASFA 2. not applying for Returning students Merit scholarships.</p>
