Pitt Chancellor's scholarship 2018

Has anyone gotten a notification about interviews yet?

My daughter’s email from last year is dated 1/26/2017 and she was in the first batch to be notified.

Best of luck!

My son got an email last week to resubmit his Chancellors application with his personal email address. Apparently the first time it may have autofilled with a non functional pitt.edu email address. Not sure if this was his fault or a system thing on their end. Anyway he resubmitted a week ago and today received an email that said " The application you submitted to the University of Pittsburgh Honors College Chancellor’s Scholarship will now enter into a review process. You can expect to hear from us about next steps no later than March 1."

Wondering if others experienced this issue? We were hoping to hear something soon so we could time making a campus visit. We were waiting to schedule anything until we knew if he was going to be called for an interview.

@croaswife the exact same thing happened to my daughter last week and again today it said “your application has been submitted” even though she submitted back in November. It’s kind of weird!

I submitted my application in November and received both the “resubmit app” email and the “your app will now enter a review process” email. I was hoping that interviews would start rolling out this week but that no longer seems like a possibility:(

hi! i received this same email, it, unfortunately, went into my spam somehow but I was able to find it after seeing your post. However, the application will not let me edit or resubmit anything, and the things that it has asked me to change already look right within my application. Did you also have an issue with this?

My son received the same email a couple of weeks ago about resubmitting his email address and then again last night informing that the app will now enter review process with the March 1 date.

I did not get the message to resubmit my application but did receive the email saying decisions would be made by March 1st.
I was wondering if anyone else noticed their “status” on the online application page changing? After I submitted 11/26 it said “under review” for a while and then “rejected”. between that and no response I thought I just didn’t make it to interviews, but they just sent that email and now I checked the status and it says “accepted”. A bit confused right now.
Best of luck to everyone!

wait so you got an interview? @18993sl

@18993sl that’s interesting? I hope it means you got the interview! They should be following up with an email soon if that’s the case. Sending all the good vibes to everyone waiting!

I had to resubmit my application and also got the application confirmation about a week ago. Seeing @18993sl’s post, I checked my application status today, and it says “accepted”. I haven’t gotten any emails or letters though.

@18993sl —hmm, that’s weird.

Last year Chancellor’s finalists were sent a specific email with details about their interview, how to sign up for an interview slot, etc. The portal never really seemed to change that I remember. I’m not sure what the portal changes for you mean but definitely don’t assume anything until you get an email.

did not get an interview as far as I know. just got that “you will be updated by march 1st email”, so I guess we’ll see. sorry for the confusion!

My daughter’s also says “accepted.” I wonder if it means “accepted” to Pitt? Or application accepted. Any insight @hail2pitt?

@CValle, I do not have additional insights. I don’t believe notification of a decision comes through the portal, though. You should hear official notification. Best of luck!

Best,

Has anyone heard back yet? I’m going crazy constantly checking my email and this thread.

@oliviags22 Absolutely nothing on our end either; my daughter is anxiously awaiting word one way or another. Good luck!

Seems like the timeline is later this year, since some students had to resubmit their applications?

Hopefully interview invitations will go out soon!

The timeline is very late this year. Methinks there was a glitch in their portal maybe?

D was notified by email last year on 1/26 and her interview was on 2/13.

I feel for you guys with skin in the game. I also think that computer issue with having to re-submit documents is playing a part in your delay. I am an objective observer who is pining for more money opportunities for my kid! haha. I am rooting for your kids to do well in this scholarship competition. So great.
