University of Pittsburgh Class of 2023 Discussion Thread

@NovaMom93 Thanks, I hope your words prove truthful! I applied to Dietrich.

Can someone point in the right direction on how to check status on the mobile app. I logged in and clicked on admissions. I then clicked on Accept/Decline Admissions and the next screen says “You do not have any pending applications at this time”.

@DCNatFan you are in the correct place. The “you do not have any pending applications at this time” message changes once there is a decision. My D’s now has a new screen with the school she is applying into, the school year 2019-2020, and her applicant number. Below all of that are 2 separate buttons of “accept” or “decline”.

@NovaMom93 Thanks very much.

What app is everyone talking about please

@Malamo it’s the Pitt Mobile App

Hi guys! Just wanted to say I GOT IN TODAY!!! I got a letter in the mail saying Congratulations, I’d been checking the application portal and all it said was “The application was complete” and I finally got the decision today!

I applied September 3, to Dietrich as an English writing major! I’m from a suburb of Pittsburgh so Pitt’s our big state school (besides Penn State.)

I also hope my application backstory will ease some nerves…I had an UW 3.49 GPA, W 4.34–so my UW was definitely a bit low. I got a 33 on the ACT but actually got a D in a chemistry course sophomore year due to medical reasons. I was SO sure that this was going to hurt me and I would never get into any schools…But I did! So if you’re stressed out, don’t worry because it’ll all work out!

@mohagenka Congrats!!! I applied last week and am OOS so definitely not expecting anything soon but fingers crossed! (:
Also, does anyone know if Pitt offers aid to NM semifinalists or finalists?

I have heard other people who applied after me get accepted, like weeks after me… I haven’t heard anything, does this mean I was not accepted? Do the acceptances come in order of application date or do i still have a chance?

My D applied via common app on 09/11/2018 and still no emails from Upitt. She also applied with on same day with Drexel and we have already got portal login as well as confirmation that they have received SAT scores.

can you explain what you mean by cost comparison, and how you went about submitting that? Thanks!!!

Wait for your letter, there should also be an email sent with a video from Pitt. Check your spam folder.

@blank2019 unless Pitt has dramatically changed this year, the answer is no. They do not offer merit $$ to NMSF or NMF. However, if your SAT or SAT are competitive you could be in the running for merit.

I checked today (I’ve been checking non stop since I applied 8/1) and my buttons have changed!! Super anxious.

Mine said “you don’t not have any pending app.” For the longest time.

I just got accepted!!! Had the buttons appear on the app. Applied August 20th to Dietrich, 1580 SAT, 4.35 wGPA. Good luck to everyone, I’ll be checking the threads!

Hi has anyone heard back from the business school? I’m thinking it goes by college?

Congrats to all!

Hi everyone, I a, seeing everyone mention an “app” where they can see accept and decline buttons and I wanted to know what app you are talking about? I have the website where I applied but it only updated me that my SRAR were sent and when I update the information on my account. Is there another app? If it is the Pitt PS Mobile app, how do you log in? Because it asks for a username and password and if you don’t have it, it asks for information that I don’t have yet. If anyone could help me out I would be greatly appreciative, I would hate to miss out on accepting or decking my application. Thank you!

@Julclergpls44455 Is this something you heard from admissions directly? D submitted her app through the common app and hasn’t received any email confirmation yet. She even emailed admissions to verify about her application and also asked about the SRAR submission - they just sent her a link for the SRAR but never responded to her question about whether or not her application was received. A little frustrating…
