*** The Official University of Pittsburgh Class of 2020 Interview/Acceptance Thread ***

Are you serious?? What time was the email sent?

10:45 am EST! I interviewed back in November.

Members don't see this ad.
 
I'm in as well!!
But I'm curious whether anyone got a scholarship?!

I didn't get any scholarship in my email but they said to expect another email about registration tomorrow.. So maybe we'll hear something then? did you send in a scholarship essay?

I did! I wonder how it really works since we sent in our scholarship essay to the financial office as supposed to the admissions..
Let's cross our fingers for scholarship in tomorrow's email! :)

Congrats! Did your aadsas status change as well? Also how long do you have to put a deposit down?

my status hasn't changed yet and we're supposed to expect another email tomorrow regarding registration info! (deposit amount and deadline)

I just got the email about an hour ago!!! YAY!!!!!! I AM SO HAPPY!!!

I also just got an email about the scholarship. They offered me $2000 per year... Better than nothing! But I'm also Canadian, so probably there is more $$$ waiting for my American comrades :) !!

CONGRATS EVERYONE!!!!

Anyone interview back in November and recently get accepted?
 
To those who sent in a deposit, is our only option to send in a cashier's check? I'm on vacation and I'm not sure how I'm gonna get a cashier's check without some crazy fees..

Maybe try calling the financial office? A bank draft/cashiers cheque usually costs about $8-10.. unless you are in a tropical country with no US banks in which case I am jealous!!

Who wants to hear an awkward story?

I went to go mail my deposit forms for Pitt and was going to send in my Tufts wait list form in the same trip. Decided to decline tufts last min and therefore didn't need to mail the forms. Dumb me accidentally mailed the Tufts wait list forms WITH my Pitt forms to Pitt cause they were stuck in the same pile together. Fml Lol... just wanted to share that incase someone else does something stupid this cycle.

Does anyone have any idea when the next round of acceptances will be going out?
 
If y'all are curious, the class is currently less than 67/80 full according to an email sent out yesterday that again, did not hide the recipients. I say less than because this is only accounting for those who put down the first deposit so far.

Wow that's great news..thanks for the update!
 
I just got in on March 1st, after interviewing in November. Probably going to decline my spot seeing as I've already accepted an offer at my state school and signed a lease down there. Pitt was my number one, but their failure to even let me know I was still even being considered after interviewing in November really affected my decision to go.
 
So are you saying that people sometimes put down a deposit and don't end up attending? And thank you so much for your update.
Most people with a deposit down will likely be attending. However, some may be waiting to hear back from other places where they are on the waitlist. If they get off the waitlist, they will give up their spot and forfeit their first deposit.

To be fair, most schools don't update you that frequently and you should generally assume you're being considered unless informed otherwise by a rejection. Regardless, congratulations on your acceptances!
 
I just got a waitlist email from the 1/25 interview. They called it an alternate list and it is ranked, just updating to see if anyone got the same

I also got the same email. Interviewed Oct. I wonder if everyone who interviewed but did not get accepted was placed on the alternate list or not. I haven't heared anyone who got rejected so far.

Also got alternate list. Not sure what else I could have done to impress them once I got the interview, heh. I won't be taking a spot, so there goes my only chance of studying in my home state. c'est la vie!
 
Does anyone know when the second deposit is due for accepted students?
 
Is anyone doing the dean's summer research project?

Yes. Ms. Adomitis sends you a confirmation email the day she gets your deposit. She was out of the office until today, but she just confirmed that mine arrived this afternoon.
