Yep..I didn't get into UM, but I applied for FIU '09.
CMB, why don't you apply at FIU and MDC..I'm sure it will be a lot cheaper. Only thing for FIU is that you have to take 2 courses that you probably have not taken yet, as they are unique to the school (Intercultural Communications and Intro to Nursing). If you have a good GPA, i'd give it a shot.
Plus, when they do the point system to evaluate you, since you have a previous Bachelor's Degree they give you 3 extra points.

However I applied to Barry's Program for Spring 10. We will see what happens.

. But yeah, they can be discouraging..I was told that about 160 students were applying, while there are only 50 seats to fill. I believe I will find out end of may to around june.
