College Scorecard (latest.cost.net_price.private.by_income_level.*), 2024

Estimate what your family would pay

Every school is required to publish a net price calculator. It asks about your family's finances and returns an estimate for you specifically, which is worth more than any average on this page. Your school counselor and the college's financial aid office can also help.

Scholarships and merit aid

Miami has historically been generous with merit scholarships (including flagship awards like the Stamps and Singer Scholarships) alongside need-based aid, though competition for the largest awards is intense; admitted students should check their financial aid portal closely, as packages vary widely.
