Merit and talent-based, they are awarded on ability as demonstrated through live audition. There is no separate scholarship application.

    The National Merit Scholarship Program is an academic competition for recognition and scholarships for high school students. National Merit finalists who are accepted and name the University of Miami as their first choice may receive a $1,000 or $2,000 college-sponsored National Merit Award. A student will only be awarded the maximum amount if their demonstrated need is greater than $2,000.

  • Venture Miami Scholarship

    The Venture Miami Scholarship Fund was formed to provide tuition support for first-year students through gap funding for in-need City of Miami residents who have been admitted into STEM or in demand occupation programs. Venture Miami is committed to building a “Miami Forever” and a “Miami For Everyone”.

  • Outside Scholarship Opportunities

    We encourage all of our students to seek additional outside scholarship opportunities to finance their University of Miami education. We recommend looking to community organizations and foundations or accessing the following search engines:

     

  • Recipients of Outside Scholarships

    If you are a recipient of an outside scholarship, you are required by the U. S. Department of Education to notify the Office of Student Financial Assistance and Employment (OSFAE). Please submit all information from the scholarship agency to the OSFAE as soon as the student is made aware of the award. Please use the Outside Scholarship Documentation Submission Form to report this information. 

    Please send all outside scholarship checks to:

    University of Miami
    P.O. Box 025551, Location 20
    Miami, FL 33102-5551

    In the event that your financial aid award, including outside scholarships, exceeds the total cost of attendance, University funds may be adjusted to ensure that the total aid does not exceed the cost of attendance.  You may check with the Office of Student Financial Assistance and Employment when receiving awards from outside agencies to find out the full impact of the outside scholarships on your University financial aid award package. Never assume that your original financial award will remain the same if such awards are added. We reserve the right to modify any financial aid award at any time due to changes in eligibility or new information received by the OSFAE. Visit our Terms & Conditions page for additional information.
