University of Miami Class of 2023

if i didn’t get merit, is there a chance in the near future? or do they only announce it with admission?

@sandyi18 yes, visited U Miam, met rep at my school. Was accepted @Tulane Honors and $30k/year Merrit but deferred U Miami (1510, 3.98uwgpa)

Has anyone heard from Texas??

undergraduate admissions said the only scholarships not out yet are the premier…I’m not sure about the message system though…and I’m not even sure they knew about the premier…

@purplecattt so UMiami sent me a message on my CaneLink like three weeks ago telling me that they haven’t received my noncustodial parent CSS Profile. I emailed them after and told them I sent it a while back. They replied saying that they do in fact have it and that it’s in their system. I was accepted and received a merit award however I received a message telling me that I don’t get any financial aid yet because apparently my noncustodial CSS profile is still missing. Basically, I don’t think that any missing financial aid information affects merit awards. It only affects financial aid.

@Schuh07 thank you so much! extremely helpful. if i did not yet receive a merit scholarship, do i have a chance for a premier or no?

has anyone been invited to scholarship weekend?

@purplecattt to be honest, I have no idea. I suggest calling admissions and asking them that. Perhaps they’re still rolling out merit scholarships?

Waiting for merit - expecting something. S has 36 ACT/3.97 GPA - visited school and met with admissions rep when she visited high school. There was no merit money mentioned in the acceptance letter and I see nothing else. Does that mean he was offered no merit?

Has anyone got declined?
