UPCI 2017

I haven’t recieved any information yet :frowning:

My daughter got in Friday. We are from out of town. Does anyone have experience with the program? Have specific questions on staying in dorm, where do the students eat, how organized and safe it is? From the 2015 annual report on the website it looks great.

If I didn’t recieved an email, should I take that as a rejection?

@jimali I have a friend that did it a couple years ago and she loved it. I’m pretty sure you eat in the Pitt dining halls. I live in Pittsburgh and have been on the campus tons of times and I can say it is pretty safe and a nice area (btw CMU is right down the street if you’re daughter was interested in seeing that as well)

Thanks for the response and advice.

I got accepted into DiSCoBio which was my first choice! :smiley:

@ritikulous No, your results will come in regardless of acceptance or rejection.

Anyone else accepted?? I’m so excited!

@vegucated26 you coming to UPCI? I thought you were gonna go to Jackson?

Just for a point of reference, what were your stats? (GPA, SAT/ACT, EC’s, etc)

@bioisgreat 4.0 UW, 4.6 W, 34C ACT, did some medical related things like doctor shadowing, but more charity based, like organizing own fundraising event that raised 25,000 dollars, etc. I think that the essays are really important. They told us the acceptance rate was somewhere in the 20s if I’m remembering correctly
