[NSGY_and_Coffee]

waitlist, my dream school and my interviewer said I was a perfect fit and should expect good news so it really stings

Same here...

 

[TuckGamePerfect]

WL for me, congrats to all the ballers out there, currently taking spare seat donations

 

[Kmani6]

[brainperson1]

Wait did you all get an email?

 

[Morningnight]

Wait did you all get an email?

No email for me! Just checked the portal.

Edit: Not sure if it's different for the people with As.

 

[premedhopeful1013]

Did they just accept and put people on the waitlist? No Rs?

 

[Medicat]

Wait did you all get an email?

Just checked portal. No email.

 

[pennychunkie115]

alright, time to regroup: anyone know anything about how waitlists at Pitt work/when they get some movement??

 

[hagalaga19]

WL thru portal, no email yet. Congrats to the As! Similar experience with all above about vibing with the interviewers & all

Doesn't say how many on WL, but last year 65 were given acceptances from the waitlist.

 

[chimericantigenreceptor]

WL pain

 

[TuckGamePerfect]

Can someone quote the acceptance status just so I can dig the knife a bit deeper?

 

[NormalUsername42]

Hey at least you all on the waitlist have a chance. Straight up R here. OOS but really strong ties. This one hit kinda hard 😢

 

[seph7125]

WL, as expected lol

 

[NormalUsername42]

Apparently they've sent at least one R 😅

 

[bernedoodle]

A! Hail to Pitt

 

[matt32red]

WL on the portal, OOS. My faculty interviewer said they'd beg the admissions team to take me but I knew not to trust anything lol

 

[confused666666]

A!! My first one and top choice! I'm over the freaking moon! thank you Pitt!!!!!

 

[huaxiang]

GOT THE A!!!!!

No email yet

 

[hathi10]

R here. This one hurts a lot. Really felt great about the interviews. Got a 9/10 interview too. Ugh

pretty sure last year there was no WL movement at all :/ I think that data is from the previous cycle

 

[Dobermann]

+1 WL

 

[TuckGamePerfect]

Alright someone check my math here for last year:

913 Interviews
299 Accepted (including those that were on waitlist)
65 People got off the waitlist
Meaning 299-65 = 234 received immediate acceptance

913-234 = 679 interviewees were WL or R, but let’s just say majority were WL

so 65 / 679 = a rough 10% WL movement?

 

[sunrisedolphin]

WL, hoping for movement because this is my top choice and my alma mater

 

[sweatysweetpotato79]

To WL people - are you sending a LoI?

 

[a1324566]

WL on the portal, OOS. My faculty interviewer said they'd beg the admissions team to take me but I knew not to trust anything lol

What were their initials? Curious if we had the same since mine told me the same and to start looking at apartments

 

[April-Cancer]

To WL people - are you sending a LoI?

Planning on it

 

[jojofu]

Got the A!

 

[lakerslover777]

idk how to feel about this but wow i'm surprised that a lot of us are all in the WL boat...? is this a good or bad thing or just it happened to be

 

[snapster]

OMG ALSO GOT THE A I CAN'T BELIEVE IT!!

Congrats! What are your stats? You've been killing it it seems with all these great school!

 

[lordsnow290]

A! No email yet

 

[April-Cancer]

Seems like a majority go on the WL every year

 

[sunrisedolphin]

WL on the portal, OOS. My faculty interviewer said they'd beg the admissions team to take me but I knew not to trust anything lol

my interviewer said the same thing as well

Waitlist is going to be the vast majority of post-II decisions for many schools. Sending in those Letters of Intent or Interest (if it's true for you) is all we can do now.

 

[dudlee]

does anyone know what percentage of applicants get into the PSTP/how many students will be in the next cohort?

do ppl know if there's some preferred time that they like letters of intent? i sent an update kind of recently so i'm not sure if sending an LOI like next wk or something will be viewed negatively

 

[ahhhsomanyquestions]

R, as I expected but boy does it still feel bad. Congrats to all the As!

 

[palmtree137]

WL. Top choice by a landslide. Crushed. Praying for movement. Congrats to the As 🙂

 

[BadaBing_BadaBoom]

A !!!!! I am crying at work right now I am so happy !!!

 

[pajaro]

A in portal!!!! Absolutely loved this interview! So excited!

 

[MooseAndMe99]

Waitlisted, I was praying everyday for past few months to get in so this is really disappointing. Thought it was one of my best interviews too.

 

[caterpillar123]

WL here too 🙁

 

[coldertouch]

WL for me. Congrats to everyone who got the A!

 

[TuckGamePerfect]

Anyone have an idea of when typical WL movement occurs for Pitt?

 

[jumpingsilent]

A!

Went through and read their bylaws. Apparently the waitlist is organized into a "tier one" and "tier two." Tier one considered first, then tier two. I don't know if we'll know that when they email, but I doubt it. Also, according to link above and MSAR, 65 people off waitlist per year. Based on the overwhelming amount of WL on here as well, who really knows?

 

[bb2516]

A via portal! Surprised about no email lol
