Pitt did not consider the writing score for the SAT’s for the 2008 academic year applicants. The merit scholarships started at about the 1350 SAT level this year. With that SAT score and commensurate GPA, timely applicants would receive a $2,000 (in-state) and a $10,000 (OOS) scholarship. Starting at the 1450 SAT level, the full-tuition scholarships began, at least for the in-state folks (not sure about OOS). Since Pitt has rolling admissions, earlier applicants stood a slightly better chance of getting scholarships as well. I’m not sure what triggered the nomination for the Chancellor’s scholarships - I thought all the scholarship recipients received nominations to apply.

Certain departmental scholarships also kicked in. Most engineering admittees also got some money this year.
