@whatever4ever Thanks for the research!

Hey guys um a little worried bc I don’t think I’ll get in. So can someone please maybe predict my chances?
I live in NJ and my gpa is rlly bad but my sat score is not too bad
So my stats are:
Top 25% percentile of class (IK bad)
3.48 uw and 3.95-4 w
I mean this isn’t rlly an excuse for my grades but the avg sat at my school is like a 1300 I mean it’s not great but it’s pretyyy high
Um my sat score super score is a 1500 and reg score is a 1480
My extracurriculars aren’t great pretty generic I’m a member of clubs no leadership positions and I’m in nhs and that abt it
Not expecting to go to a good college but would rlly like it if I got in to UMiami!
Thanks guys & girls and anyone in between!

I applied EA
My stats are 4.4 GPA, 29 ACT, Florida resident have a lot of extra-circulars and varsity athlete for 4 years. Lived overseas in Dubai for my first 2 years of HS. My essays are probably the strongest part of my app. I love the U and kept in contact with the admission counselor that visited my school.
Hope to see you all there next year :slight_smile:

Oh I’m applying for bio, pre med major too!

@izd1234 Yo my friend is applying as a Bio major too, good luck man

Wait so when does ED desicions come back? I think last year it was on Dec 18th (monday) so if it follows same pattern maybe Dec 17th (monday)?

I’m guessing the 14th or 17th. In past years it’s been the second friday or third monday of December.

Decision day coming up, praying everyday man

When will they start releasing EA?

Miami’s EA notifications are late January/early February…ED, is late December

EA is Dec 15th, 2018

ED u mean?

Did the office of admissions confirm that it will be released this Friday?

I just called admissions asking if they had a date for ED applicant decisions and they won’t say when it’s going to be released. The waiting is killing me!

UGH! Same !!! I am terrified, keep us posted if you hear anything :slight_smile:

do we def think it’s this week?
