Official 2013 Decisions Thread!

<p>Yes, my son's acceptance letter said the same thing, George.</p>

<p>About a week after receiving the acceptance package my D got another packet of info about the Honors College (which wasn't anything new- we'd gotten the same info over the summer). Has anyone received any merit money info?</p>

<p>I got the same thing, an acceptance letter that said i was eligible for honors, then the honors information exactly a week later. I still havent gotten scholarship info, but I've heard it comes out about a week after honors acceptance packet...</p>

<p>congratulations! yay haha</p>

<p>When it says Application is incomplete on the mypitt website..does that mean they did not receive all your information from the school yet or that they did not finish reviewing your information you sent?</p>

<p>I think it means they haven't received your info. I think it changes to something like All Your Application materials are received, you will get a letter with the decision in blah blah weeks.</p>
