[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I assume PP meant 4.36 gpa for Pitt and not 3.36. Someone looking at Pitt as an OOS option because stats are not high enough for UVA or UMD should know that Pitt likely won't give them merit. They are looking for all A's and very high test scores. [/quote] Yes, 4.36 WGPA. Here's a post from Pitt Admissions re: merit scholarships: Rank is only applicable if it is provided. Merit based scholarships are very competitive and in most recent years have been awarded to students who rank within the top 5% of their class (if rank is provided) or have an A average in a challenging curriculum. It is hard to speak to the hypothetical you provided because there are a lot of factors the Scholarship Committee will consider in addition to rank when reviewing an applicant.[/quote]
