Acceptance/Honors College/Merit Aid Chances

Colleges & Universities University of Pittsburgh

I’m OOS and I applied to UPitt on 11/2. I used a fee waiver and there were some problems with it, but my application status now says that it’s complete (as of two days ago)!

I’ve had a few friends get accepted/honors college notifications already. I’m just wondering if anyone has any guesses about when I’ll get a notification/if I’ll get into the honors college/how much Merit Aid I have a chance at. Here are my brief stats…

32 ACT (35 in English/Reading, 28 Science/Math)
36 ACT Writing
Top 10%/1st Decile
4.556 W GPA
4 APs J year (Biology, english lang, spanish lang, APUSH)
4 APs S year (Eng lit., micro, govt, calc ab) + College course anatomy
Class President/Newspaper Editor/Soccer Captain/Key Club VP/STEM Crew President

I appreciate any ideas! Thanks!
