Miami University-Oxford Top Questions

I found both of these stereotypes false. Students wore the same type of clothing as students at any other college.

pretty much

They can be accurate for some people, but overall it is easy to find many students who don't fit that stereotype. I have met so many nice people there.

Some but not all.

somewhat

Not entirely, but pretty close. The general income at Miami is definitely upper upper middle class, and it's really common to see the UGG boots and Northface, but the personality of the student body is generally very nice, you just have to be willing to try to forget about the stereotype and get to know the people for who they are, not what they're wearing. As for the wanna be Ivy League, that's probably just because the campus is SO pretty and it looks like an Ivy League.

there are the select few who are like that but its not at all how everyone on campus is

This stereotype is very true, but there are the outliers.

there is some truth to every stereotype. i was nervous coming in because of what i had heard regarding the stereotypes. my experience has been that while there definitely people who fit these molds, there are a lot of people who don't. although i will say, there are a lot of beautiful girls at miami.
