Probably no need for them to spend the time doing that since they’ve got us refreshing the portal [emoji23]

Accepted today! OOS! I'm thrilled
does anyone know if we have to "accept" the admission? does that information come in the email later today?

It's interesting that there isn't an "accept offer" link yet. Maybe that comes later today or next week. Kinda freaking me out though
also wondering when we’ll be prompted to accept. anyone know how long it takes to get the letter in the mail?

Hi waitlisted applicants at UPSOM,
As an addendum to my update from earlier this morning, please know that your placement on the UPSOM waitlist will not impact your PSTP decision. We rank applicants without reference to initial UPSOM acceptance or WL outcome.

So PSTP decisions, both in terms of an invitation to interview and the result, are independent of the decision process for the regular MD pathway?

When I received my acceptance last year, I received a hard-copy acceptance letter in the mail but no acceptance email. My first email from UPSOM was for financial aid

Does anyone know when we should submit LOIs? Some schools say not to submit anything until April/May when they actually have Waitlist movements but it seems from previous years that Pitt has waitlist movement as early as February/March.

@cheerios5450: For now, please refer to the "Overview Calendar" for the Class of 2027: Academic Calendars | Office of Medical Education, School of Medicine | University of Pittsburgh. For my class, our mandatory orientation week started 1 week prior to the official "First Day of Class" listed, so please take that calendar with a grain of salt. I did not receive an email with the White Coat Ceremony and orientation week dates until late May
@senecca: Last year, there was an admission data form on AmpUp (our application website) that we were required to complete within 2 weeks of acceptance to hold the seat. That admission data form was used to enter student information into the University of Pittsburgh database, and it is non-binding (so you can choose to go to another school later if you prefer). There was no monetary deposit required, and this was confirmed by a document we received in the mail with our acceptance latter
Please feel free to contact the admissions office directly if you have any further concerns about this! I can only speak from my own experience

Did they say if they’re still doing the two tier waitlists or is everyone in one pile?

Pretty late, but post-II OOS R here. I was pretty hyped about this school and even had a faculty member send a supporting letter to strengthen my candidacy (although it was submitted just several days prior to the decision release). Very bummed to not get a WL at least (not that they owe it to me, but it sucks anyways you know). I also see very few post-II R posts so I write this to emphasize that you are not alone and definitely not a failure, it's just crazy competitive. S/o to the waitlisted people and good luck on securing a spot to this cool school!
I'm accepted but not showing up on CYMS. I'm an MSTP applicant so I got the A back in October and have been in communication with the program plenty since, so it seems like they just haven't seen any of the info to AMCAS yet.
I was accepted Friday and have not yet had Pitt populate as a choice.
ditto
is it supposed to because I don't see anything either :/

Fellow WLers. Chill. Schools take some time before they can report things to AAMC and AAMC takes time before they publish it on CYMS. Another school I’m WLed posted my WL on AAMC 13 days later than when they told me of my status. Relax.
for me as well. if i were to make a selection would other schools that i have/will interview at be able to see that or not until the commit to enroll option becomes available?
