[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PP -- my DC has only one single concern about the U, the party reputation, DC is not a wild child at all and very studious.  How has your daughter found it on this front?[/quote]
I really think it is what you make it. I'd say my DD is middle of the road for Miami: she's very social, enjoys dressing up and going out, loves the sunshine (in fact she feels she "needs" sun) and has always needed "down" time. But she has plenty of friends who study "ALL THE TIME" "like LIVE in the library." She also complains a bit that she feels in class everyone is smarter than her (but I'm thinking they're studying more than her). Also, it seems the more studious kids stay on campus after 1st year (freshman are all required to stay in dorms).  The on campus Jr/Sr living facilities are nice furnished apartments -- highly coveted and offered to students with a minimum GPA (I don't know the requirement but pretty sure my kid would not be eligible). Others move off campus to nearby apartments and houses. All in all, we've been satisfied with DDs choice and her experience at Miami.

As I've said, a lot will depend on your DC's visit and tour (and unfortunately too dependent on the weather and tour guide that day).  GL![/quote]
