In at Miami! Forum

[SpencerPratt]

Roommate called to say that there's a letter from UM at the house. I was on hold. Seems like those who got in got an e-mail first, so it can't be good news....

I got the dreaded WL via snail mail after being on hold. Good luck.

Miami or Chicago Loyola?

waitlisted after being on hold.. postmarked the 8th..what else does UM want from me?!? already sent an LOCI with another statement as well...plan on sending 2 more LOR's (generic academic & UM specific from a recent alumn)

[bella16]

Withdrawing today as UGA doubled my scholly. Hopefully, that opens a spot and $23K per year for someone. Good luck!

[kellbell]

Congrats Bella!

To the waitlisters - today is the deposit deadline, so you shouldn't have to wait too long to hear from UM. Good luck!

My deadline is March 22nd but I'm thinking I'm going to have to withdraw sometime soon. I had hoped to get some money but the school does not think they will have any money to allocate even with other withdraws.

Anyways, withdraw coming soon probably.

[midrangejumper]

has anyone gotten money? or knows how thats gonna work? ive seen a lotta people withdraw that had money attached...where does that money go?

something tells me they over extend themselves with cash then reel it back in with the withdraws, and dont hand out additional money. you guys think that 's true too? (note: i dont think im in a position to get any money just curious )

I've asked that same question before on this thread and somebody said that they project their scholarship amounts just like their yield. So, no, they shouldn't be giving out any additional money

I don't know if the same rule applies to all schools but I asked this question to an admissions counselor at another school and she said that scholarship does NOT get redistributed as people withdraw. Sneaky little law schools...

I think it has to do with the fact that schools offer scholarships to more students that they can actually afford to, with the knowledge that many of the offers will not be accepted.

Adding myself to the club of those put on waitlist after being on hold.. blah!

[gator08]

I just withdrew my acceptance, hope that helps someone here.

[lawschlapplicant]

I got accepted to Miami last week. My question is after taking a tour of the campus next week, can I meet with an Admissions Coordinator and ask for Scholarship money?

Also, what is the protocol for doing so?

I already paid my seat deposit (no $$)

I would really appreciate some feedback.

[flhealth]

THERE IS NO MORE MONEY!!!

Did anyone else get this e-mail?
