<p>Thanks for that info! I visited USD and Miami, and I felt like at USD the students seemed very happy and everyone was always talking to everyone. It seemed like a nice community amongst the students. I’ve heard Miami is cliquey, but it has a higher retention rate than USD. I posted a thread about USD’s retention rate (85%), and it concerns me a little, because other schools I am looking at have ones of >90%. Do you have any idea as to why their retention rate is lower than the other schools in comparison?</p>
