I recently received my acceptance video into UPitt, and I have now just made my academic deposit. What should I expect to receive in the future? Anything about housing, admitted students days?
Congrats!
You will start to get emails and information about PittStart and housing in the weeks to come.
What is your major?
@carachel2 Thank you. I will be doing pre-pharmacy
Congrats, @SpartanAzure!
Information about housing is sent by Panther Central (pc.pitt.edu) and there is information about the housing process on their website. They usually send housing packets in March or so - those go out to students who have paid their enrollment fee. However, the allocation for housing is not done on a first-come-first-served basis. You just need to commit by May 1 (you’re way ahead there) and then fill out the housing application by the deadline printed on your packet. A mass allocation of housing is completed in June.
Academic orientation and registering for classes will be done online over the summer, you will get information about orientation being open in May. You’ll also start to see more information about Welcome Week, move-in, etc. coming your way in the late spring/early summer.
There are optional retreats over the summer as well, they are called Panther Connect retreats. More information about those retreats should start going out in March-ish.
There is a little more information about the enrollment process here: http://oafa.pitt.edu/enrollment-process/

A Pitt Admissions Staffer
