Do you think it would be too late to receive significant merit-based aid if I applied to Pitt now? I understand the deadline for priority action is not until January 15th, but as an out-of-stater, the school would only be an option if I were to receive scholarship money.
I don’t think it’s too late but applying past say Oct does seem to decrease your odds at “significant” because Pitt doesn’t guarantee merit if you meet a certain criteria.
That means when you get back to school after break have your transcript sent asap. Also order your score reports now. Pitt superscores so send all scores. You can start the online app now.
