University of Pittsburgh Class of 2028 Official Thread

My S24 is wait listed at Pitt. He applied for business. He took a tour of the school last week and was impressed. He was on the wait list for Indiana U in Bloomington as well, but was accepted on 3/30. Any word on the Pitt releases?
Thanks

I’m also wondering when they start to take off the wait list, I’m thinking probably later than last year due to extending the decision date to 5/15 due to FAFSA issues.

Hi all!
When is the deadline to commit/housing? Decision letter says commit by 6/1, housing by 5/1. But then admissions page says 5/15 with housing either 5/1 or 2 weeks after putting down enrollment deposit. I’ve also read from fb groups that housing deadline is 6/1. Wt??

Also, it says you need to have received an invitation e-mail to be eligible for reimbursement. What e-mail would that be?

Thanks!

I’ve just recently committed to pitt - April 4th i believe. What I’ve gathered is you need to commit by 5/15, and housing stuff should come out around then to register. I think the last day you can register for housing would be 6/1. Once you commit, you get a pitt email and they sent me a pre-orientation/housing type form, and that says a few weeks into may more will come out. That’s what I’m assuming, may be wrong tho

Does anyone else have information about the housing deadline? I know they moving “decision day” to May 15, but the website says May 1 is the deadline for guaranteed housing. My kid was about to commit to Pitt but then I saw that he may have missed the window for guaranteed housing. I’m hoping the housing website was not updated when colleges moved decision day to May 15 this year.

If you don’t mind me asking, what range are her stats?

4.0 w/4.3 uw, test optional

On Panther Link for parents of admitted students this question was asked recently. The answer from Molly Swagler, Assistant Vice Provost was “Yes, you got it…enrollment deposit by May 15, and housing deposit before June 1”

Twin B admitted off the waitlist this week. Twin A is attending Pitt (Twin B will decline). Thought this might be helpful to those waiting.

Could you remind me Twin B’s general stats? Also what school did they apply too and how did they notify you? How much time do you have to accept/decline? IS/OOS?

OOS 34 ACT 3.2 GPA
Arts and Sciences. Notified via email. Not sure about time to reply.

Thanks! Best to you and the twins in the upcoming year!
