Megan

Focusing on the academics, Miami is best known for its exceptional School of Business, as well as its vast acceptance of international students. Miami also works to ensure that the students feel prepared and comfortable in sculpting their college life. Now, we all know we don?t pick a school strictly based on academics. Miami comes complete with the beauty of Oxford and an area known as ?Uptown? where students can let it all go with some great food, karaoke, or painting some pottery.

Miami University is best known for its business school: The Richard T. Farmer School of Business. It is consistently ranked as one of the top 25 business schools in the nation by BusinessWeek. Other than the business school, Miami is best known as being a public Ivy League school. It is considered a public Ivy because of its lengthy, but extremely beneficial Liberal Arts requirements known as the Miami Plan. Also, the professors here are extremely helpful, knowledgeable and really want you to succeed as a student.

Either being highly conservative or hockey. We are also known for our high academic standards and being one of the original 'public ivys'. The students at Miami work hard and play hard. During the week the librarys and extra class rooms are filled with students studying. During the weekends, the bars are packed and you can hear the noise from the frat parties throughout campus. It is a good place to be if you are career oriented but enjoy kicking back on the weekends.
