    Unless your parents can afford the exorbitant tuition or you have a great scholarship I would not recommend attending UM. I had some good professors and some not so good. Class sizes are fairly small which will matter for some, others not so much. People talk about the campus being beautiful but in my opinion it was nothing special. It is a fairly new school and the modern buildings lack the character of older schools established in the 1800s. In addition, the older buildings they did have are being torn down to make room for newer facilities. Weather is a plus if you don't mind the humidity or lots of rain. If you are looking for the "typical" college town experience I doubt you will find it at UM due to its location in a large metro. It seems like UM is a hot destination for prep school kids from the Northeast. The vast majority of guys that attend UM are bros. Also rich kids from around the world, especially Latin America, the Caribbean, and China. Save your money. Start off at a Community or Junior College then transfer to a public four year college or university. At the end of the day the University of Miami (like all other colleges and universities) is a business. They just want your money. They don't care about you or what happens to you after you leave. That's my two cents.

    Has such a gorgeous campus and amazing atmosphere. It feels quite safe, despite hearing that it's in a rough area. Traffic isn't all that bad.

    The campus is fully open to the public. You can enjoy a walk around the buildings and the little lake. The palms and the grass make it very nice. You can also admire some students in the classes or at the pool. There is also a shop where you can find all types of goods personalized β€œUMiami”.

    Absolutely beautiful campus! I took a tour and the campus is very post-modern. Lots of art works and installations spread throughout. There is a wonderful mall style food court. We took a look at the dorms and each person gets their own room in their floor. Tour information session extremely informative with costs, requirements, options, etc. Everyone could not have been more nice and helpful!

    I should have gone to school here. Have visited here for classes and performances all my life and I've always LOVED the lush, campus grounds, the macaws, and best weather. THE school to attend in America. Has it all. Was there on a Wednesday recently to work their Farmer's Market. Yes, urbane UM hosts a market every Wednesday. Part of their WellCanes program. And don't get me started about the athletics...

    UM gave me the foundation of a great business education and I went on to NYU for MBA Finance and Harvard Grad for international business studies. Great career. Great university. Legendary 'Cane football.

    My daughter went on a field trip today and enjoyed every second of it. She loved the campus and how people work hard to graduate. She wants to go there when she is older. She is definitely excited. She wants to be a pedestrian doctor and I'm so proud of her.

    Never went to school here, but as a visitor to campus, had an excellent time. Met a lot of cool and interesting people and had a book signed by one of the climate professors that wrote a book about Hurricane Andrew. Very cool school!!!

In terms of facilities and resources, the University of Miami leaves no stone unturned. The libraries are well-stocked with extensive collections, providing ample resources for academic research.

    Love the vibes and all but for how highly the university regards itself, the school is a joke. Pretty much just a big Union operation.

    The staff were all friendly and nice. The professional staff were also really nice. Amazingly so. The building is great and the valet fee is $3! After 4 PM, it’s free!! The tech who did my ECG told me I’d get the results in 1 or 2 days. I got the post to MyChart within 2 hours !! There’s a guy who plays piano in the lobby everyday! His name is Jeff Zavac. I must say that I was impressed.
