<p>@Lilly246, typically students who are honors college eligible will be notified in their acceptance letter. If you just got the email acceptance, your letter will follow soon. </p>
<p>For info on scholarships timeline see previous posts I’ve made in this thread such as #293. </p>
<p>@hailtopitt1787 - thanks! Do you know how many (approx) invites are sent out? </p>
<p>@FromMD, 450 students are invited to compete. Thanks! </p>
<p>@hailtopitt1787 - Thank you as always!</p>
<p>I received my video acceptance, but am still waiting on my letter for details. Do you know how long it takes to receive the letter after the video. Thank you!</p>
<p>@dbsb11 I got my video on a Friday and got my letter either Monday or Tuesday can’t remember exactly, but they’re close together!</p>
<p>@hailtopitt1787 Would I be able to apply for the honors college after I join the university? As in sophomore year or sometime before? Also, would I qualify for in state tuition after freshmen year? I am from IL. </p>
<p>@hailtopitt1787 I already got admitted to the university, but would I still be able to send my Dec 2014 ACT scores for scholarship consideration? </p>
<p>Received the video on a Thursday, and then the letter arrived in the mail almost a week later, either on the next Thursday or Friday.</p>
<p>@Lilly246, In order to qualify for in-state tuition you would have to meet these requirements: <a href=“http://payments.pitt.edu/tuitionguide.html”>http://payments.pitt.edu/tuitionguide.html</a></p>

<p>@hailtopitt1787 Pitt is the first choice. Went on a tour and loved it. Went to the Bridge Program this summer and loved it. Unfortunately the application was put into need to see first marking period grades. Any idea on how soon post grade submissions feedback will occur?</p>
<p>@ohrly123, you should hear something within a few weeks of our receipt of the grades, we try to keep the wait-time as short as we can! Good luck! </p>

<p>@hailtopitt1787 On my Pitt portal, it shows that the deadline for the fee waiver and transcript is 12/18.What would happen if I send those in after that date? Also, how often do Pitt update the portal?</p>

<p>@hailtopitt1787 when will one hear about Merit aide? Or should we assume since it was not in with the acceptance letter that she will not be offered any?</p>
<p>Just got my acceptance via email!! The video was so cute, I died. </p>
<p>I had a 2020 SAT (660 CR, 640 Math, 720 Writing) and a 1910 on my first SAT ((670 CR, 650 Math, 590 Writing) which superscores to 2040.
My GPA unweighted was a 92.6 somethin’ and weighted it was a 97 somethin’

aaaand I didn’t send in any extracurriculars or resumes
I took 1 AP 10th grade, 3 11th grade, and 4 senior year (so 8 APs) and the rest honors
got all 5’s and 4’s on the tests
and I applied with the priority application due Dec 1st</p>
<p>yup 
I’m so happy! Yayyy, Pitt!!
OH, and I got in for film studies!!! </p>
<p>@phillymom5 Our Scholarship Committee meets weekly and makes decisions on scholarships. If you have not heard yet, there is no reason to worry. Due to the competitiveness of the scholarships, some students go through two, sometimes three, reviews before a final decision is made. While some students find out about a scholarship quite early, possibly within three weeks of being admitted, many more do not find out until much later. Bottom line, those students selected to receive an award will find out no later than March 1st.</p>
<p>Did anybody else receive their letter for the Honors College today? </p>
