****PITT CLASS OF 2021 DECISIONS THREAD****

@Sdmk99, That should clear out in a few business days. If there are no action items, you should be fine. If it’s not cleared out in a few days, feel free to call our office and double check the status: 412-624-7488.

@rsmith0208, It typically takes 3-4 weeks. This time of year it may take a little longer because the Admissions Committee is also working through applications that came in over the summer.

Best of luck!

What does it mean if your program status says prematric? @hailtopitt1787

@hailtopitt1787 should I be concerned that I haven’t heard back yet?

Stats:
W GPA: 4.0 (we don’t go higher than that)
UW: 3.9
New SAT: 1240 + 18/24 on the Writing
6 AP Courses and numerous Honors Courses
Our school doesn’t rank

I applied 08/27, and my friend applied in mid September and heard back already. Our stats are virtually identical, and we both applied to Dietrich! Please let me know whether I should be concerned or not?

@richandra, If they can make an admissions decision with just the June score, they will. If they decide it’s better to wait and get more information from your second test before making a choice, they will do that (as long as you indicated on your application that you are taking the October test).

Best of luck!

@Kristen117 Congrats! When did you apply?

I applied a week ago, and i don’t remember a section for ec’s and community service, is this right? anyways can someone provide the link for the portal

@hopeforthebest82 Nope, no EC section. You can incorporate your ECs into the short answers.

My son got his admission email today. Applied on 9/25.
@hailtopitt1787. Do we request for GAP Application or pitt decides if he is eligible.If it automatic how long will it be?

@rsmith0208 - You will receive an admission letter from PITT which will also mention honors college admission, scholarships referral and GAP referral. If letter mentions GAP referral, medical school email online app link in 2 weeks.

Ok thanks @class0f2017

My status says complete, and I applied on Monday, when should I expect a decision?

This is my first choice and I’m already too nervous

@rsmith0208, Congrats to your son! The invitation to apply for the GAPs comes from our office.

Best,
