What's up, everyone? I'm from out of state and considering applying to the University of Miami. Is the acceptance rate any different for out-of-state applicants compared to in-state? I want to know my chances before I apply. Thanks!
Hey there! The University of Miami does not have separate acceptance rates for in-state and out-of-state applicants. They consider all applications holistically and do not favor in-state applicants over out-of-state ones. So, the overall acceptance rate, which was 19% last year, applies to both in-state and out-of-state students.
To get an idea of your chances, compare your academic profile (GPA, test scores, and extracurricular involvement) with the profile of admitted students. Keep in mind that factors like your essays, recommendations, and an overall fit with the school's mission will also play a role in the admissions process. Good luck!
