About Miramar, Florida

Miramar is a city in southern Broward County, Florida, United States. Miramar was founded by A.L. Mailman to serve as a "bedroom community" for nearby Miami and Fort Lauderdale. Mailman bought the original property he was to develop from H.D. Perry Sr. in 1953. The Miramar Cultural Center and ArtsPark was created to celebrate creativity and diversity within the city.

Does the school pay you to attend?

Florida Academy of Nursing funds essentially no grants of its own — almost all aid here comes from federal (Pell), state, or outside sources rather than the school's own discount. Its sticker price is what it is.
