No decision yet here. Midyear grades only just came out for us though.
This document gives outstanding information from Pittās perspective, thanks

Great catching up on this thread! Curious when news will break for those asked for mid year grades. Honors College is coming end of Feb. or early March! Merit is separate from accepted into Honors!
We are in state. For those who are OOS, if Pitt is too pricey, do a deep dive into your state school. For us University of MD was cost prohibitive, but what a great option for MD residents. I can say this about lots of state schools. Love the school that loves you back! And Hail to Pitt! Best of luck to those waiting to tie up loose ends!

Any insights on why you were asked to submit mid year grades? I listened to a podcast with an AO from Pitt, and he talked about consistency in grades - made it sound like this request was made of students who had had a dip in grades.
Does that sound right? Or more, students whose grades are not as high relative to the previous admitted class?

Mine was asked to submit mid year grades and a week prior other sending them she was waitlisted. Kinda confused as to why they asked for mid year grades and didnāt wait for them. Not looking like Pitt is gonna happen for her and if it does, I doubt mine will wait it out until June.
Called Admissions and they said up to 4 weeks once mid year grades were uploaded. Even tho to do list said expect 2

Kids who joined the Panther link, did they join the āincoming studentsā group? My kid got an invite to join the incoming student group but is hesitant wondering if that group is meant for committed kids only or for everyone accepted.

May I ask where? I saw there are some different tabs.
I donāt believe there is. 
@pinkslee and @mec93 Once you log into the portal, go to the left menu (blue color). Click on āFinancials,ā then select āView Financial Aid.ā Click on āSpring Term 2023-24ā and āFall Term 2023-24ā for details.
Just found out our son was waitlisted for the fall. Anyone else familiar with this? He applied 8/24 and was requested mid year grades. Was told he would still be considered an early applicant His weighted GPAis 4.6. All As and 2Bs for first semester. Fully aware he will not get any merit and thats ok. Huge legacy as myself, husband, and his older brother (Dec21) grad and sister (Junior) all went /going to Pitt. ( And we donate every yearš) . We are going to call to ask them to reconsider but wanted to see if anyone else has gone through this. So tired of all the waiting.

Why in the world was he waitlisted if he applied in August with a 4.6?
