<p>sorry it was SOOOOO long, just wanted to give u enough info to get some good answers as to what chance i have at each school.......i hope this wasnt all in vain.</p>

<p>thanks</p>

<p>Wow, we pretty much did the same thing. I applied EDI to BU and RD to Pitt. I got into BU CGS EDI and rejected by Pitt (In state). You'll get into Pitt, and into BU CGS. I'm much less certain about you getting into COM.</p>

<p>Where are you from?</p>

<p>Im from Hawaii. I really want to get into Pitt but wasnt sure out-of-state. I talked to a few recent grads and they said Pitt is really looking to boost the OOS student population so I hope that goes in my favor. And I would never apply to BU Colllege of Communications, it would be my goal to graduate from there but I don't think I would get accepted if I applied there right away.</p>

<p>But you think I can get into Pitt with what I have now?</p>

<p>You'll get into CGS for sure. I think you have a good shot at Pitt, but not 100%.</p>

<p>any chances or advice will be greatly appreciated! =)</p>

<p>You should be safe match to match at Pitt and safe match at BU with those stats.</p>

<p>P.S. My son was admitted to Pitt, but currently attends Indiana University at Bloomington (business major).</p>

<p>I respectfully disagree Cal.</p>

<p>thanks for the advice....anybody else got a good estimation??</p>

<p>loslobos--fine to disagree. Go ahead and post your estimates for the OP. That's what the forum is all about.</p>

<p>Match for Pitt, slight reach for BU COM (Safe Match for CGS).</p>

<p>Bump Bump! =)</p>

<p>Bump buda bum bum BUMP BUMP!!</p>
