Purely anecdotal observation, I noticed that everyone who reported rejections on Admit had either (i) a low GPA or (ii) a low MCAT, relative to Pitt's medians. And the SDN users who were rejected seem to have LM ~70

If that is in fact the case, maybe it's Pitt trying to "catch up" on a later start by culling... but again, all speculation
Me w a LM 67 that wasn't culled, trying not to get my hopes up lmaoo
 
Did everyone that got rejected have "a decision has been made" in their portal prior? I still have "under review".

Here is what their website says about this year:
The Admissions Committee will notify interviewed candidates through the admissions portal whether you have been accepted, not accepted, or placed on the waitlist by January 15, 2026.
Wow that is really early to be done with interviews and decisions by then. Thanks for sharing

I actually did not send an update, and yea I did not receive a call either. That email drained the soul out of me then gave it back once I saw the decision.
 
I also found this on the website
The UPSOM begins extending invitations to interviews by late July and will continue extending invitations until the end of November.
 
For people with A's, did you all receive the "Pitt med has a secret" then the decision letter just says "Welcome to the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine"? I got this email and honest to god cannot figure out if this is an A or not 😳. Interviewed on 10/30. DIdn't send update letters

Anyone received July or even August interview invite? The earliest I see is mid September, so it’s possible that there’s delay in their process this cycle?

This message aligns with how last years cycle went. I think it will extend further into the year.

(This is just me being hopeful, Pitt pls give me a chance 🙏🏽 🥀)
 
For the people that got accepted, did you have two options to send updates? Trying to figure out if I've been waitlisted or not. I sound neurotic as hell lol

I'm not sure where this is from? I don't see it on the website. I think this is outdated.

From what I've heard, unlike past cycles, interviews will continue in January.
