About This College

About University of Miami

The University of Miami is a private research university located in Coral Gables, Florida, one of the most prestigious institutions in the southeastern United States. The university offers more than 350 academic programs across undergraduate and graduate levels, spanning business, engineering, law, medicine, the arts, sciences, and more. Over 4,200 graduate students from more than 125 countries study at UM, reflecting the university's deeply international campus community. The International Student and Scholar Services (ISSS) office supports F-1 and J-1 visa students through I-20 processing, immigration advising, orientation, and ongoing student services throughout their enrollment. While the University of Miami offers on-campus housing, it is limited primarily to undergraduate students, and many international students, particularly graduate students, arrange their own off-campus accommodations in the Coral Gables area.

Homestay Near University of Miami - What's Included

Just arrive and settle in.

Coral Gables is one of the most beautiful and welcoming neighborhoods in South Florida, and your host family is your first real connection to life in the community. You practice English every day at home, not just in the classroom, and your host can help you navigate the area, use local transit, and get settled near the UM campus. For international students arriving in Miami for the first time, that local presence and daily immersion from day one makes a real difference.
