miami
by: idkkI'm solid upper middle class I have some nice clothes and I think I'm pretty put together and classy but some days I need to wear leggings and sweatshirts. some of these posts on here make me really nervous that I'm not good enough for miami... not rich enough or pretty enough or stylish enough.

Don't pay attention to everything you hear on here, you don't need to have super expensive and nice things to fit in at Miami. Every girl here has a day out of the week they're wearing a sweatshirt.. And literally every girl on this campus wears leggings practically every day.

Not everyone here is wealthy or even good looking, but most sure wish they were.
This university could win a t-hard wanna be award.
Wealthy people generally don't go here. Upper Middle class people who wish they were wealthy do.
You don't need to be wealthy , but you need to really pretend you are.

Wealthy people don't go here? That's false. The average family income for students that go to Miami far exceeds $100,000. Most Miami kids are from Lake Forest, Connecticut's Gold Coast, Westchester County, Chicago, DC/Potomac Area, and wealthy Cleveland/Columbus/Cincinnati suburbs (Shaker Heights, Hudson, Chagrin, Bexley, Upper Arlington, Indian Hill, Hyde Park). That's why we come here, so we're around similar people. Most students' families pay for their kids education...very few take out loans. So, switch that 95% and 5% number up there. About 95% of the student population is the stereotypical Miami student. The 5% are those who slip through the cracks and don't fit in.

Sweetheart, I didn't say my parents made $100,000 (not "a hundi thou"...clearly I know where you fit at Miami, if you even go. Likely would not have gotten in.) Not only should you learn how to write, but you should learn how to read. I said, "far exceeds $100,000." That includes my dad's...which you multiply SEVERAL times based on his salary alone and not including all of our funds. Get it?

There are actual statistics to back up the $100,000 income thing. Additionally, this school IS expensive out of state and A LOT of people are out of state-- almost fifty percent. Out of state cost is 40,000-50,000 a year and Miami has been ranked as an expensive school before.

UIUC (not U of I -- you clearly already don't know what you're talking about) is not a really good school. Plenty of my friends and I chose not to go there. I know several people that transferred from UIUC to Miami.
As for DePaul, people that want to go there aren't the type really that want to go to Miami. It's very urban and gets a more eclectic crowd, plus it's Catholic.
Drake doesn't even fit in whatsoever with Miami or any decent school. Extremely random for you to drop a school in Iowa in the mix.
The only school you mentioned that is similar to Miami is DePauw. Kids are just as smart at both schools. Greek life is the same. Money background is the same. It's a snooty school in the Midwest.
Michigan is a huge state school that doesn't fit in well in this mix either, though it's probably second closest to Miami out of the mixed bag of schools that you mentioned.

This is so pathetic. Why a few people here try to pretend they are Paris Hilton, is beyond me.

I will admit I didn't get into Michigan or OSU. I will also admit my parents gave me a budget and expensive private schools were out of the question. So, here I am. This is a normal state school. Nothing special. Sorry Dislustionals.

Cool. I feel sorry for you. You'd be better at those schools. Please transfer out. I clearly know where you fall at Miami. About 5% of the misfits.

actually I'm in a top tier house. I decided to enjoy going to a school with fellow underachievers and I'm having a blast. Nobody can say this school isn't fun. I'm not transferring. I'm in the cool group.

This school is actually a nice welcoming place. This website however is the epitome of the miami stereotype. This is greekrank which means that the 70% of the school not involved in the greek community have no reason to be on this website. Additionally when you look at the posts on here (especially the ones that have to do with rank or tearing down a sorority) most of the people on here are clearly in one of the top 6 sororities. The opinions expressed on here are only a fraction of the miami community. Therefore you cannot take the posts on here as a sign that you're not good enough anymore than you could by looking up the school on urban dictionary.

You are a pathetic wanna be. We go to a PUBLIC SCHOOL. This school is not expensive or exclusive in academics or wealth. If you think your parents making a hundi thou makes you wealthy, then you are sadly mistaken and fit in perfect here with the rest of your basic girl friends.
