Do not choose this school. Professors give you grades months after you complete the class. They shut down their community counseling center and the department is in complete disarray. I promise you, this ain't it. Spend 165,000 somewhere else and get the quality education you deserve.
The University of Miami is a small community in a major city. It of course offers the sunshine of Florida and opportunity of several community activities and organizations to use ones newly acquired skills. The physical therapy program strongly encouraged integrity and life-long learning.
