Its always been a popular school in this area.

Ok, local alums are tracking increasing attendance by area kids over the last 8 years.


Many of us local alums don't participate in that stuff but we are here, grew up here and came back home after graduating. It was very popular when I went.

UVermont will be more fun/chill but Pitt is decent.

Yay! Oakland is a great college neighborhood and the Pitt kids honestly seem happier than the CMU students.

whew! Yay! Time for a long soak in a bath, OP. Mine is only in 9th but I can't wait for that day when I know it's done and secure.

Congrats! Hopefully the acceptance came with a nice merit scholarship!

My HS junior has visited and will likely apply next year. Seems very popular in these parts - our tour guide went to TJ.
