Asking University of Miami Students How They Got Into UMiami | GPA, SAT/ACT, Clubs, etc.

Hey Guys! Today I'm going out and asking 100 University of Miami students how to get into UM. From test scores to GPA, to even a few regrets, were covering it all today. With admissions being crazier than ever, it's a super scary process, but after hearing these guys you'll feel a lot better about coming to UMiami!
Feel free to tell me what you guys wanna see next. And please leave a thumbs up and join the family!!

I went to and Graduated from University of Miami . I have been to many different schools worked many different jobs . University of Miami was the worst environment I had ever been .A lot of Rich kids that where punks imo . The teachers r great and the campus is nice . It’s a hard school to get into . I had a ton of work compared to the other college I was previously at . If I could do college again I would never even consider university of Miami . I personally just didn’t love university of Miami because of the rich vibe the kids gave off . They where spending thousands of dollars at the club each week . My experience was terrible there . I’d tell ur son go to FSU . The kids where very smart , like take a shot at u out of now where . I did meet a lot of cool people don’t get me wrong but overall my experience was terrible ( I went there 3 years and got money off ) . I advocate against university of Miami . It is one thing when u visit on campus and walk around it is another thing when u become part of the student body

[@Gorilla7007]

It was genuinely the worst environment I. Had ever been in. Imagine a bunch of kids with unlimited money and u put them on one campus . That’s university of Miami . It’s different when u walk around on campus versus when u become a cane

[@addikanskywalker5883]

Quick question, what resources did you use to get most of your scholarships. Im going for the Florida Bright Futures but im lost on how to find any other scholarships.

[@ashtonherndon]

I personally only used bright futures and florida prepaid, and got internal scholarships from UM when I applied, but I would def look for local and cultural scholarships as well!

[@maxwellgarcia_]

Are we getting the tally half marathon vlog?

[@vincetgp3885]

So my friend just got into UF and FSU and I was just wondering what ultimately pushed you to choose fsu

[@ashtonherndon]

I liked the campus and the overall vibe at FSU more than at UF, and also I am in the entrepreneurship program at FSU which is one of the best in the country so that was a huge factor in my decision as well! But either way both schools are amazing, it just comes down to personal preference!

[@vincetgp3885]

Thank you so much for replying! Absolutely love your videos and they’ve been a huge help getting me excited for college. Keep up the great work and hope I can meet you when I get florida state! Have a good day!

[@Gorilla7007]

I went year and graduated . My experience was alright tbh. I’d choose a different college tbh. A lot of kids r mean imo. Like where smart asses . A lot of cool people to tho don’t get me wrong . I’ve been to 5 schools had a bunch of different jobs . University of Miami was definitely my least favorite environment I’ve been in . It’s a very rich clubby vibe . If ur not clubbing Thursday - Sat u might not like UM. If I had to do college again I wouldn’t even consider university of Miami . I mean it’s aight don’t get me wrong . I personally just didn’t have a great time . Great teachers tho and nice campus ! Just didn’t like the student body

[@Asher-xo3gd]

I guess you could say Miami had a huge lead as your top college, but FSU kept chipping away until at the last second they secured your admittance in dramatic fashion…

[@user-gy7zs3yp2q]

Hi bro,this video is fantastic ❤😮. But I have a request would you like to help me on how to apply, please.

[@AmazingStoryDewd]

What if you're an untraditional student? I'm 25 how do you get in?

[@Jimbo1257]

Depends what you mean by an untraditional student. I'm 23 and it took me 2 years of community college to get the point I feel good enough to apply let alone get in but that's due to my finishing 2.3 high school gpa I skimmed by with

[@PeaceLoveDolls]

You apply as a transfer student if you have previous college credits. If you do not have college credits, you apply as a freshman. If you need housing, you also need to apply for that. Make sure you send your FAFSA report to financial aid and send an official transcript to the registrar.

[@Dee-GBE]

2-time Cane here. I love the university but yeah MIA is very expensive city and the school is very expensive. I would not suggest going there unless you’re a nepo baby or athlete. I was a Veteran student and making ends meet initially was very difficult.

[@calumwatson348]

Why do people say yes when asked if they mind something and then go along with it as if they don’t care. I thought if you responded yes I mind it meant you didn’t want something. W video tho

[@Razsound]

It’s one of those ambiguities in English, people respond incorrectly to this phrase all the time

[@colecoyne7221]

Live in Miami or live in tallahasse… I got into both and I chose Miami without question.

[@jackadcock4001]

Right, yes. Your analysis is so valid. There certainly aren't problems with it. But you didn't go to Miami, so you wouldn't know.

[@jackadcock4001]

Also, what too tier students are going to your school? Oh they don't? Maybe that's due to your 60%+ acceptance rate 😅

[@mikehawk6177]

Ah yes your analysis is so valid yet you lack the ability to easily research information on google as well. If you had this rare ability then you’d be able to find out that in 2021 FSU’s acceptance rate was 36% and in the same year Miami’s was 28.5%. But hey if you want to gloat over the 7.5% acceptance differential that simply comes down to UMiami having half the space available for students compared to FSU. Nearly the same acceptance rates and identical rankings in the US News and World Report, yet you’re trying to validate paying 10x more money for the same education😂.
