<p>I am currently an out of state college freshman and am thinking about transferring to Pitt. I applied last year and got in but decided to stay in state and now I am kind of regretting my decision and thinking about coming to Pitt! Does anyone know the housing situation for transfer students? I would be transferring in this fall (2010) as a sophomore, and I know that housing is not guaranteed for transfer students, but does anyone know the chances of getting on-campus housing as a sophomore transfer?</p>

<p>Also, can anybody tell me about rushing a sorority at Pitt? I heard that rushing is not that competitive, but do sophomores who rush have a good chance of getting a bid? Is greek life a big deal at Pitt?</p>

<p>Any advice/insight would be so appreciated!
Thanks so much!</p>

<p>For what it is worth, last year they had freshmen (guaranteed housing) living in the lounges until they could find them dorm rooms so I would think there would be very limited or no dorms available for non-guaranteed students.</p>
