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

Has anybody who applied to the guaranteed admissions program gotten an interview request yet?

@glassflowers - Are you taking about GAP Medicine? I believe they will start looking at the apps in January only and interview invitation come in early Feb.

@srk2017 Yes, I am. Oh, okay - thank you very much! I called the admissions office and they said that interviews should be sent out by December 15th, but that’s good to hear.

@glassflowers
Some GAP programs don’t require interviews but others do, I think. Which GAP are you referring to?

@flashk I was referring to the GAP medicine program. I think they require an interview, though.

@hailtopitt1787 Thank you for your quick reply!

Got my acceptance email video! So, will any Honors College & scholarship info come only in mail & not in email?

@asianpiper, Yes, scholarship and honors college letters are sent via snail mail.

Submitted application on November 22, short answer question on December 14, got accepted today!

@eren2122 It’s strange-I didn’t get any acceptance email, only an email saying this:

"What You’ve Been Waiting For!

PittComingSoon

Thank you for submitting your application to the University of Pittsburgh. The Admissions Committee has completed their review of your application and your admission status will be mailed to you. If you’d rather not wait until the letter arrives, you can find out now!"

Clicking the link leads you to the video. Guess I didn’t get an acceptance email lol just the video.

@eren2122 Video came with the email. It said your decision is being mailed but if you want a preview click here. Such a clever video. I’m

@asianpiper --the video is supposed to have your name all throughout the video and it says “ACCEPTED” at the beginning so yes, that is your accepted video! Congrats!

What is going on with the pitt application right now?? When I try to go to the login page it just says “application closed.” Does this mean I can’t submit my app???

@olive4prez --yikes! Quite possibly…the deadline is 12/15. Sounds like they have shut it down?

But I thought the 12/15 deadline was only for priority consideration?

@asianpiper Hmm interesting. Maybe I will get the video later

@carachel2 and @itsgettingreal17, We are still accepting applications! The 12/15 deadline was for scholarship consideration, not for applications in general. I am opening the application on my browser with no trouble - would you mind checking again to see if it works now? If you continue to have issues, there should be a “Help” link in the top right corner - please submit a request and the people who manage the application will be able to troubleshoot.
