Paradise

The weather at Miami was insane. so so so many beautiful sunny days between 70-75 degrees. perfection. As a student, you must most of the extreme summer heat, and you get to go to the beach in january. I kept looking out on the ridiculous green campus all year thinking, "One day I'm gonna take this for granted." but it never grew old, or tiring. It's just beautiful.

Despite the Private School Pricetag, Miami Is Suprisingly Affordable in Many Circumstances

I got the highest offer of any school I applied to from UM (3/4th tuition). They are very generous with their scholarships. Additionally, they don't cut any corners or hit you with hidden things which I super appreciated. My sister's school dropped her scholarship because she didn't fill out a FAFSA on time even though it was merit-based aid, and the law school I'm at will do everything to cheat you into paying more. At UM, when my friends decided to stop school for personal reasons or whatever, UM froze their scholarship offers so they could return if they wanted and still have them. They also were completely helpful and reasonable about deadlines and such. So worth it!
