Unless you're really connected down there, I'd retake and try to get into UF or UM with lots of money. Temple, Fordham, and Cardozo won't do you any favors in South FL, and Miami is way too expensive.

I also wonder how he's getting a full ride from Temple, but nothing from Miami.

I, too, found this strange. Maybe they ran out of funds, since I applied rather late in the game? I don't know.
They ran out of funds. According to what I can gather, if you applied anytime after the first week of January, you were out of luck. However, today there has been some rumbling that they might be able to award some more merit based aid if a lot of people turn down their packages.

Apply to UF and go there. Temple is a really good value, but if you're deadset on FL it's not going to be easy getting back there from Temple.

This. A Florida school with a nice scholly would be better for you.
