Your Student’s UM Education

What kind of education do you want for your University of Miami student? The best, of course. That may mean different things to different families. But certain attributes are essential to a truly high-quality university education. And, while such an education is priceless, it also entails some very real costs.

What many parents don’t realize is that only a portion of the costs of providing a superb education at the University of Miami are covered by tuition. Philanthropic support is also essential to ensure that we can offer your student the very best learning experience, including outstanding academic programs, comprehensive support services, exciting study abroad options, unusual research opportunities, and a rich and vibrant campus environment.

Your gift will:
• Expand and enrich learning opportunities for students
• Contribute to the vitality and diversity of the University by expanding scholarships
• Preserve and enhance the value of your student’s degree

The University of Miami Parents Fund not only helps bridge the gap between tuition and the actual cost of funding an education, but supports University-wide initiatives, including scholarships, academic programs, student affairs, cultural events, library resources, research, professional development, and much more.

As parents, you play an important role in your children's choice of university and in supporting their educational experience. By getting involved in the University of Miami Parents Program and supporting the Parents Fund, you have the opportunity to ensure your student will have an exceptional educational experience.

Please help spread the word! We welcome not only your financial support, but your participation in the many volunteer activities that bring UM parents together on behalf of their students and the University as a whole. We look forward to hearing from you. Working together, we’ll keep making a great thing even better.
