<p>I saw that 30% of Pitt students are OOS. Does this mean that they aren't too harsh on OOS admission? </p>
<p>Also are there many students from CA? CA is a pretty overrepresented state at most colleges; is Pitt an exception?</p>
<p>As an OOS student, do you think I can get in?</p>
<p>quick stats
SAT I 2290 (1560)
Asian, OOS (CA)
Class Rank: around top 15% at a decent school
SAT IIs: 800, 800, 760 (two histories and a science)
average/decent ECs.</p>
<p>2290 & 1560 SATs and you’re only in the top 15% of your class? I’d say your school is either VERY “decent” or your GPA is much lower than your SATs would indicate.</p>
<p>This would be a total safety for you. You are wayyy above Pitt’s standards.</p>
<p>^^ Small school of around 125 students in my year which means that I’m beat out by around 15 ppl. School doesn’t rank, but you kinda know about where you stand.</p>
<p>Also, I just realized that I asked if “I can get in”. I meant, can I consider this a safety even though I’m OOS? Also, I’m interested in majoring in philosophy; would that make a difference in admission?</p>
<p>do not even worry about this. you are set at upitt. move on and worry about a school that presents a challenge to you.</p>
<p>This is a safety for you.</p>
<p>Your definitely in. Are you applying for a special program? cuz I love Pitt but It’s definitely not worth flying coast to coast especially when you have the UC’s.</p>
<p>I want to go to the East Coast for college and while I would probably choose Cal or LA over U Pitt, I consider U Pitt on equal standing as the middle UCs.</p>
<p>I’m also using it as a safety b/c they have rolling admissions which is really awesome.</p>
<p>Their philosophy program is pretty amazing at the graduate level and I’m hoping that will rub off a bit on the undergraduate level.</p>
<p>I think you are in line for a full-tuition scholarship. And being from Calif will help you.</p>
<p>I agree. In with honors and full tuition scholarship. I got that with slightly lower stats than yours. Consider applying to one of the graduate school guarantees if you are interested.</p>
