[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have seen alot of posters mention Pitt.  Has that become a very popular school??  Can someone tell me what makes it so desirable? Sorry to derail![/quote]

It is a great school with a lot of excellent, well-regarded programs in a friendly, safe neighborhood located in a city known for its livability and easy access to cultural and sporting events.

Yes, it is becoming increasingly popular.

It is a serious contender for my DC, who received enough merit aid to make it cost about the same as our in-state public flagship.[/quote]

Pitt does a great job with their open houses and really showcases the city and all it has to offer. It has a reputation as offering lots of merit aid but it sounds like as they have been getting more popular, the merit aid is not as plentiful as it once was. My DS loved the school and location and was definitely interested but only got about $8000 in merit aid with a 1480 SAT. Definitely more expensive than our in-state flagship. [/quote]
