What suprised me most when I arrived at Miami...
I was actually surprised by how much free time I had. Don't take me wrong, I still had a good amount of homework and you'll likely spend more time out of class preparing and studying than ever before, but you aren't really in class that much. You might even luck out and have a day where you only have one class. There is more than enough time to get out and find something to get involved in.


Extra-curriculars:
I swam throughout all of high school and plan to continue swimming here at Miami for the club team. I have always been very interested in medicine and will be joining some pre-med organizations on campus.

  My Advice for a High School Senior:

"Start applying as soon as you can. It might seem overwhelming at first but when you are done with it you will feel so much better. Keep your focus, even though it is extremely easy to lose it. Consider all of your college choices and don't get stuck on just one school. Definitely visit the colleges you're looking at during the school week because you will really get a feeling of what the school is like. After being accepted somewhere, try to attend an event for accepted students or something similar. If you've already decided on a college, visiting it again and walking around will help you to get a good visual map in your head of the campus and it will really help make the transition easier."
