Application FAQs
Applying to the Bridges Program
Please note, if you have initiated your Common App for admission to Miami University in addition to having a Bridges application, you will have two checklists on your Applicant Status Page — one for each application. When you log in to your Applicant Status Page, you will see the status of your most recent application. To view the status of the other application, please use the dropdown menu in the upper right hand corner just above your checklist.
Preparing for the Program
We offer optional programming for family members and guests on Sunday following check-in. This consists of a Q&A session with admission staff and a tour of campus, and it is separate from student programming. Guest programming will conclude by 4 p.m. We do not offer programming for guests on Monday.
Please note that family members and guests are not able to accompany the participating student during the program. Additionally, Miami only provides transportation and lodging for the participating student. Thus, any family members and guests will need to arrange for their own lodging and facilitate their own transportation to and from campus. This includes transportation to and from the Cincinnati and Dayton airports.
