I heard that the adcom isn't meeting until a little later this week....
 
Does anyone know if they are still sending out interview invites, even if for wait list?

I am holding onto a glimmer of hope. LOL.

when did you guys interview? maybe you interviewed at different times and are in different batches therefore you were told that your decisions would be made at different times?
 
no, I interviewed the same week and they also told me Monday would be the day, but since then I spoke with the admissions office and they said it wouldn't be Monday but that it would be this week sometime.

Also, I heard that they are doing one last set of interviews for the alternate list. you should call rose and let her know that you are still interested in the school! good luck!
 
Just phoned in the news.... hopefully one of you get the spot, I know that you really would love it. It is a great school, and was a tough decision.
 
so the group that meet last week was interviewing for a spot on the alternate list?

no they have three interview dates with 50 ppl each time for the spring interviews..the 11th, 18th, and (i'm assuming) yesterday were the three and i was told there is 40 spots for those interviewed. idk if they have extra interviews for the waitlist, i didn't ask about that. so anyone that interviewed recently were interviewing for a seat not for the alternate list.

yikes 40 spots for 150 interviewees! But they probably accept more than 40 since not all those that get accepted will deposit and say yes. Anyone know when they will finish giving notices on final decisions for all those who did and did not interview? I guess Upitt is wrapping up their cycle and finishing filling their seats as well.
 
They are making their calls today! I got a call from rose about 3 hours ago! good luck!
 
no, I interviewed on the 18th
 
thanks! it was my first acceptance so I am stoked! Good luck.... I am sure the calls take awhile.
 
congrats, congrats!

ps. i think i'm developing an ulcer. haha
 
Does this mean that the people whose AADSAS returned to "Recieved / Under Review" are NOT being accepted ths round? Seems like it...

-Cyrus

mine was changed to received/under review a week ago and still is like that. i was accepted today so don't worry about aadsas that usually takes a little while to be updated, u still have a shot
 
did she say when she would stop calling? maybe knowing when the end is will help.

she didn't say much to me i practically started to hyperventiliate so she told me to take a breathe and finally when i did she said letters should be goin out hopefully today, that they are self explanatory, and that was pretty much it..it can't hurt to call if youre worried about it
 
my aadsas changed back to received/under review, and today i got an acceptance call
 
Just to put people at ease concerning aadsas...... none of the changes before meant anything. Mine never changed at all (stayed as invited for interview) and I got accepted.
 
Are all of you guys that got accepted out of state, in state, or both?. I was interviewed the 11th and I am freakin out. I still haven't heard anything. 🙁 So I was wondering if they were doing in state 1st!

Do you guys think she might keep calling people tomorrow. I called her 2 days ago and she said by friday they would be calling, so I wonder if that still holds true.....I really wanted to get in. I hope they call me tomorrow!By the way..congratulations to all of you!!!!!

i don't know how quickly she was able to call everyone but theres def still a chance that they have more ppl to call. don't stress too much about it, theres a chance all the way up to the first day of class so keep you hopes up 👍

girl, i totally feel you!! i am going to be glued to my phone all day...ps when did we ever give them our phone numbers?
 
congrats to all of you who got into pitt. I spoke to Rose today and they made their final choices for who was getting the last set of interviews and they are pretty much done with interviews. she said those who got interviews had min scores of 21 on each section. is there anyone who got accepted who had lower scores? just curious. anyway, congrats again!
 
anyone receive the info packet of those who got in this past week?

yea if you look at my predents file you can see my highest score was only a 20. i applied to pitt kinda late too (midoctober)
 
my aa was 18, but this is my third time applying and i've been working in a dental office for the last year and half, so that may have made them offer me an interview.
 
did anyone get a call on friday? any news on if they'll keep calling next week?
 
i talked to rose friday afternoon and she wasn't totally finished calling but she said that most were out and now we have to wait another two weeks for those people to accept or decline and then they will send out more acceptances.....SOOOOOO if you don't want to go, more spots for us!
 
during the interview she did say they move through their waitlist quite a lot so as long as you haven't been declined you still have a good shot 🙂

Did she say anything else or did any of you that called or got calls know if how many offers they are making and plan on going through? The committee must have made deicisons on all the people that interviewed so far so I wonder if we can call and ask what the status is?

yea, definately you should call rose and ask for ur status rather than just waiting to get a phone call. I have called her last friday and she told me that they have made their first decision and I figured out that I was the one of the accepted applicants there. So, just call and ask! Rose said she is going to make a phone call to everybody but I do not think it would happen in few days so.
 
to the people that just recently got acceptance...by when do you have until to send your deposits and confirm a seat?
 
In the way of calling her, I simply sent her an email thanking her for the opportunity to interview and she called me back within 20 minutes.

For anyone that has been accepted: Do you know any dates or times for anything? I thought I heard something like a 3 day meeting in June or July. Also does anyone know the first day of classes etc? Just any important dates thanks.
 
My understanding is that there is a three day orientation the first week of june (4th, 5th and 6th.... i think), the first deposit of $750 is due on the 13th of march, the second deposit is due on May 1st, and school starts on the 22nd of august. I hope that helps.
 
In the way of the deposits, can we simply mail in 1 large payment($1500) or do he prefer it to be split into 2? I just don't want to get to the second date and have it slip my mind. That would really make my day😡
