@hailtopitt1787 . Can you give me a sense if Pitt is a match ? Also , Pitt takes the coalition application , correct ? So in addition to essay with the application , there are short answer questions to answer . I saw that you said teacher recommendations are not needed ; I know he has some good ones , worth sending ! Thanks !!
Hello, @maddiec - Your best bet is to take a look at our class profile and see the grades/scores of students who were admitted and enrolled at Pitt last year: https://oafa.pitt.edu/explore/class-profile/
We ask that students fill out the Short Answer Questions rather than sending teacher recommendations.
Best of luck!
