I interviewed on 10/22 and my portal is still received/under review. So frustrated because this is my only interview.....

I'm an international. Does anyone know when they will send out rejections? I want all of this to be over.

There are still interview sessions in January... so they may not send out rejections until early next year.

Don't get discouraged. My stats aren't stellar and I got an interview and acceptance. I think they are looking for something that stands out from the other thousands of applicants, more so than numbers. They want someone who is personable. My interviewer just wanted to converse and really get to know me.

Good to know! I think as long as I get an interview I can ace it! I've only had one interview at UNLV so far and I was accepted, but it'd be nice to be somewhat closer to home (and in-state) by going to Pitt.

Anyone know when to start looking for a place, or when most leases in Shadyside and squirrel hill are signed each year?

some people start as early as December of the previous year, but you can still find places into June. Right around now is probably a really ideal time to start looking though (if you can, if not, you'll still find a place just may not be exactly what you were looking for).

What's up with Pitt... haven't heard anything from them since they cashed my check... I'd really like an interview here! Anyone know where they are in terms of scheduling interviews (are they even scheduling them)?

Btw good luck to those interviewing!!

I think January 28th was their last interview date, but it could be a rumor.

I called them a couple weeks ago and they said they were done interviewing. But then after that people were still getting offered interviews. So I really have no clue what to believe. I'm still waiting to hear as well but I'm less hopeful.

Pitt seems to lack a bit in the communication department. I've sent at least 4 emails over the application cycle and haven't received one response; only calling has gotten me anything.

Same for me as well. One time I got a hold of this lady and she asked me to write her an email, but she never replied back to me.

Got the rejection through mail today - not e-mail.. interviewed in Jan. maybe they are sending notifications through snail mail instead of electronically.

Good luck to the rest of you, i'm off to Indiana U.

Big envelope in the mail today. Interviewed in late January.

On my interview day they omitted the financial aid info session. Does anyone know what the details are on the dean's scholarship (size, when it is awarded, etc.)? That will have a bearing on my decision.
