<p>Indeed.....</p>
<p>archcommus:
No I don'd think it gets updated...you just wait for your letter</p>
<p>Ahh the agony. No one might even be home to receive the letter.</p>
<p>If I call will they tell me?</p>
<p>I don't know. I can tell you I called to find out about the scholarship award after we received the acceptance and they were very evasive. They did not say yes, but neither did they say no. I got the impression they were not allowed to give out scholarship infor over the phone. But a couple of days later, we got the scholarship letter anyway.
so, try your luck.</p>
<p>I guess I will give it a shot!</p>
<p>Thanks.</p>
<p>Got accepted today!</p>
<p>Woohoo!</p>
<p>Congratulations! What year will you be transferring into?</p>
<p>Sophomore.</p>
<p>I already paid my tuition deposit and submitted the admission data form. Now I just need to do financial stuff and send in my housing contract once I get it.</p>
<p>How is Pitt concerning NEED BASED financial aid?</p>
<p>We didn't get any :(</p>
<p>What department are you going into? I think students have to declare a department after freshman general eng classes.</p>
<p>But they do give it out, right? Is your income rather high to disqualify you? Princeton Review claims an "average freshman total need-based gift aid" of over $5,000. That's just money from the school and doesn't include federal/state/etc., right?</p>
<p>I'm going into computer engineering.</p>
<p>Somehow, our EFC was higher than the tuition, so we got nada. Therefore, I really don't know how their aid works. I guess you may get some combination of grants, loans, work-study and merit money. Financial aid is certainly available.</p>
<p>I forget, did you say you have a daughter there? Or a daughter that will be going? I'm interested in hearing about fellow students.</p>
<p>Meh my EFC is higher than cost :/</p>
<p>Didn't you get a scholarship though?
<em>whiner</em> :-P</p>
<p>Yea haha :P I just thought it was rather funny</p>
<p>Pshttt.....</p>
