Tuition | UM Academies

Residential students are housed on the main campus in one of the University of Miami’s residential colleges used by UM undergraduates during the academic year.

Students have roommates and floormates who share similar academic interests. Trained residential staff live on the designated Summer Scholars floors with the participants to promote safety and wellbeing, and to create welcoming learning communities. Rooms are assigned by gender with male and female students on separate floors. We are an inclusive community.

Accommodations are air-conditioned and include desks, beds and bureaus for two students.

The University provides Internet connectivity to all students. All residential areas are equipped with University Wi-Fi and all bedrooms are equipped with a port for wired connectivity.

Study lounges, laundry facilities, and vending areas are located inside the residential college. Students have easy access to the University’s outstanding sports and recreational facilities.

The Remote Program is for students joining our campus community from a distance. 

As part of UM Academies, remote learners attend classes from 9:30 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. ET. Students engage virtually with our campus community by joining academic, college preparation, and social activities during weekday evenings.

Remote students should be prepared to immerse themselves into this two-week virtual campus experience and should not have outside commitments for the duration of the program (work, internships, outside courses, external activities, etc). Keep in mind that class attendance is mandatory and projects and coursework are assigned for completion outside of class.
