    University of Virginia VS University of Pittsburgh undergrad

    Hi all, this is my first post. I was fortunate enough to be accepted to both schools and wanted to hear what you guys thought of these schools for my undergrad. I am from Virginia, but Pitt would be cheaper, but the cost won't affect the decision. I applied as a bio major and I'm set on...

    Pitt vs Tufts

    Anyone have opinions on these two schools? I loved both schools but Tufts is very close to home. Is there any validity in going to Tufts for a good support network? I don't know anyone in Pittsburgh but recognize that it is a higher ranked school. Thanks!

    Einstein vs Pitt

    I'm curious to get opinions on these two schools, especially since Einstein doesn't have a second look weekend. I've listed a few pros and cons below, but ultimately I feel like I'm leaning towards Pitt because of reputation, but want to make sure I consider other factors: Einstein: pros: 1...

    UPitt (OOS) vs. TX-Houston (OOS)

    School 1: Pittsburgh OOS Pros: I really liked the special needs clinic, and the ranking is much higher than Houston. Also, I received a 60k scholarship to Pitt, making it much more affordable. I got to meet more people at Pittsburgh, and generally liked most everyone I met. Cons: I am...

    [Interview] Pitt vs. Tufts

    Hi guys. I put my deposit down for Tufts in December. I recently just interviewed at my state school which is my number 1. However, I just received an invite to Pitt. I realize that, although I love Tufts and the school is gorgeous, it's class size is a turn off for me. Pitt's class size is...

    UNC (OOS) vs. Pitt (IS)

    Hey everyone. I was blessed to be accepted into 5 dental schools. UNC, Columbia, Pitt, Temple and Rutgers. I initially made a decision to choose UNC based on 3 major factors that I was considering (Cost, Name and Weather and location). However, after more research on ADEA book and on this...

    Pitt v Emory

    Grateful to have been accepted to two of my top choices, both of which are great fits. I don't think I can go wrong with either. Nonetheless, a decision needs to be made. No financial aid packages yet, so waiting to make a final decision until then. Unfortunately, I cannot attend Pitt's second...

    Waitlisted at Pitt. What to do now?

    So I am really grateful I got multiple acceptances this year. However, after interviewing at pitt, I fell in love with the school. I know I want to be there for the next four years. They put my on waitlist yesterday. I am guess I either didn't interview well, or they didn't believe I would...

    Pitt vs BU

    Sooo I was just accepted off of Pitt's waitlist, and have already committed to BU and I can't decide which school to attend. I think I want a more academic career (a good school for research is a priority for me). I also don't think I want to specialize into a hyper-competitive specialty (I...

    Is this a good opportunity to take advantage of or not?

    I've always been really skeptical of programs by my schools (not this school in particular, just any school I am in, I distrust the programs irrationally) as a result, I've looked at this thing called the Pitt Summer Edge program and it seems like something that would really aid me in trying to...

    Pitt vs. Stony Brook (In-State)

    Hello! I'm assuming I won't get need-based grants from either school because I didn't get any for undergrad, and my family income is upper-middle class (150-200k combined). I have a sibling going to college, though, so I don't know how much that would affect this. I'm interested in a...
