It says on my portal(my pitt) that I didn’t submit my application fee but I did so with a fee waiver. How can that get fixed?

Is it ok if I put down 3 different sat/act tests and I am only submitting one of them? @hailtopitt1787

We combine your highest scores from all tests, so it may benefit you to send them all in! But if you choose to just send one, please just send us an email so we know the other two aren’t coming: oafa@pitt.edu.

but my act score would still be higher then my highest sat scores. Should I just send my act? @hailtopitt1787

@collegestress97, what were your scores?

SAT and ACT breakdown?

I don’t want to post them here. @mommdc

@collegestress97, We combine your highest SAT critical reading and/or ACT English and math sub scores from ALL tests submitted. We will do that with anything you send in. If you prefer to only send the one test, that’s fine too.

Hope that helps!

@hailtopitt1787 The reporting of ACT Scores from September appears to have been problematic for many students across the nation. How does this affect the scholarship review for students who have been accepted if the scores are not released by the time the scholarship committee begins to meet in November?

@RyanG1207, Our Scholarship Committee is aware of the ACT September score reporting issue. If a student reported on their application that they are taking the ACT in September, we will know that those scores are coming. Review goes weekly from late fall-late winter, so there should be plenty of time for us to get those scores in and give students a thorough scholarship review.

Hope that helps!

You only count the sat critical reading section? @hailtopitt1787

13

Critical reading and math! @collegestress97 And then English and math for ACT. Does that make sense? Sorry, I see how the wording in that sentence I posted previously could be a little unclear.
