The high school that sends the most students to the University of Miami is Pine Crest School
- Pine Crest School in Fort Lauderdale, Florida sends 10.0 graduates per class year to the University of Miami. That is first of 175 schools whose published lists name the University of Miami.
- Greenwich High School in Greenwich, Connecticut is second, at 9.0 graduates per class year. It is the one school in the top 10 from outside Florida and California.
- On the acceptances side, a separate list, St Andrews School Of Boca Raton Inc leads with 29.0 admissions per class year.
Many high schools publish a matriculation list. That is the school's own list of where its graduates enrolled. We rank those lists by graduates per class year. That means the count the school printed, divided by the class years its list covers. So a one-year list and a five-year list can sit side by side.
Pine Crest School is first. Its list prints 50 students at the University of Miami. The school labels those years "2022-26". Across five class years, that comes to 10.0 graduates per class year.

Palo Alto Senior High School prints several years on one page. Its count sits in a column the school heads "2026".
The top 10 comes from three states. Five of the ten schools are in Florida, the state where the University of Miami sits. Four are in California. One is in Connecticut. The two schools behind Pine Crest are close together: Greenwich High School at 9.0 per class year, then Berkeley Preparatory School at 7.0.
A school that is not on this list did not publish a numbered matriculation list we could read. That is all absence means here. It is never a statement about its graduates. Lists of acceptances, where students were admitted, are kept separate and are never mixed in.
The full board has the top 25 and the acceptances section: feeder schools for the University of Miami. The college page is here: University of Miami.
Boards as of October 2, 2026. Schools publish new lists every fall, so the live board is the current ranking.
