[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Pitt - my dc got full tuition covered and admission to the honors college. We are out-of-state.[/quote]

Would your mind sharing your child’s stats? And congrats![/quote]

Not the PP but same full tuition scholarship for my S in VA.  Note the scholarship doesn't include room and board but does let the recipient apply for a full Chancellor's scholarship though only 15 are granted.

Stats:  HS does not rank but likely top 5%, weighted junior yr GPA 3.36 (w/4 APs and senior course load 5 APs and 1 post AP class), 1530 SAT, 800s on Math II and Bio SAT 2s, 4 yr varsity lacrosse (though not recruited for sports).

Pitt has rolling admissions beginning in August w/a turnaround time of 3-4 weeks and has a very straight forward application with self reported grades and no need for teacher or counselor recommendations.  It is not my S's top choice but nice to get a solid acceptance out of the way in Sept (we were notified of scholarship in early Nov). [/quote]
