University of Miami Top Questions

The student body at UM is really diverse. There are hundreds of clubs, sororities and fraternities, honor societies, and many more. UM tends to have some really cool people and it's pretty easy to make friends because there are so many activities and organizations that are easy to join. There is no way to say there is one stereotype, or even two, of the student body at UM.

At UM the students don't usually talk politics unless it is brought up in class discussions etc. From my experience most don't talk about it that often however. Going to class you see a wide variety of outfits from as if they are going out to the club or if they just got up. More of that they just got up, or gym wear. I feel no student would really be out of place at this school as most students aren't judgmental of each other, and everyone has a place at this school. Most students are from around Florida however there is a great amount of diversity that you will be sure to notice your first day on campus.

There's a mixture of students here, might take a while to find where you fit in. One of the largest groups on campus is the Federation of Cuban students. Most students wear casual clothes to class and they stick to their group if you weren't apart of it from the beginning. The financial background which is most prevalent is definitely wealthy. Most students are from Miami, if not then from New York or New Jersey.

My classmates all know how to have a good time while also maintaining high GRA's and grades in general.

There is every type of culture and ethnicity represented on campus. That being said, it seems like half the school is made up of Miamians and Floridians. The chunga accent gets old pretty fast.

My classmates are a driven and diverse group of students with the potential to accomplish great things.

My classmates tend to be highly motivated, bright individuals with the determination to work hard in order to achieve success in their chosen field.

Every college brags about the diversity of its student body but Miami is the most diverse campus in the United States no doubt. There is not a single day where I cant hear multiple languages (not just Spanish) and see students from every country. Not only are there students from all over, everyone interacts as if there are no background differences to separate us. I never realized how much a diverse campus could affect someone until I came here.

My classmates are fun, always positive, helpful, and eager to work with you whenever there is a problem. Classes are small so each student in the class will be a friend at the end of the semester
