How does pitt inform students of acceptance? My son applied while on a visit.
anyone?
If the process is like it was last year, here is a rough timeline.
July/August-- alllication opens
Late September/early October-- decisions start to be released. Your student will first get a personalized email video of acceptance and then the paper version will arrive within 10 days.
Scholarship information comes in a completely separate letter starting in late October/early November.
Best of luck!
Just to add to the timeline @carachel2 put up here - students who apply as soon as the application opens should start hearing back in that late September/early October time frame. Those who apply later will hear within about three weeks.
Scholarship letters start to be sent in November-ish, but many students won’t hear back until the early spring (March 1 at the latest).
Guaranteed Admission decisions are also in separate letters, which are all on different timelines depending on the process we’ve established with the school extending the guarantee.
Best,
A Pitt Admissions Staffer
Thank you. My son is anxiously awaiting …his heart is set on Pitt.
