[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DD just heard from Pitt. Any idea when her scholarship/aid package will come? How long to wait. Thanks![/quote]

Do you mean need-based financial aid? I’m not sure schools have even received the FAFSA forms yet.

Most merit aid (they don’t give out much anymore) has been given out. She needed to have applied by Dec 1 to be eligible. [/quote]

Wouldn't you expect some merit aid to be freed up when the DCUM kids start making their final decisions?   :D

The full-ride Chancellor's Scholarship process begins with interview invitations in February according to the website.  The runners-up likely get some money.  That used to be true. [/quote]

50 students are invited to interview for the full ride. Only 15 get it.

What “used to be true” for Pitt merit is no longer, and 2 year old advice (to say nothing of older advice) is now stale.

OP, sounds like your daughter hit the deadline to technically be considered for merit. Just fyi, most merit was given out earlier. Even then, less than 20% of students got any merit last year, and it’s likely even less this year. [/quote]
