I will confirm with my child. But as far as I know he applied and got email giving information about online portal. He logged in .
On Saturday evening he opened his portal and acceptence letter was in which was dated a day before. (Friday). No email notification for that


He said he got an email after couple of days saying application received. Than a day or two later another email to create a login for Pitt. Good luck to your DC.

Congratulations! Minnesota is the school that I'm always most surprised doesn't get more DMV love (especially considering how much Pitt gets and how similar those two schools are).


My kid visited Minnesota (Mac, St. Olaf, Carleton). All the white sameness at the schools and around the Twin Cities in general was hard for her. Everything felt very alien to her— even though she is white. She just didn’t like the vibe. Which is ash me, because for different reasons p, all 3 schools had something to offer her. Pitt was a lot closer to the mix of kids at her FCPS public.


The percentage of white students at Pitt and UMN (both of which my kid applied to) is almost identical. Can’t speak for the SLACs you mentioned.

Ok interesting. Almost exact profile but fully admitted, wasn’t asked to provide anything else.


Congrats! They sent her a email and said before they make a decision they need either the 1st semester or test. I'm pretty sure I know what happened. She has a hard time with math and all three years she was RIGHT at 80 so she fell into the 70-80 range. She is more of a humanities were it's all A's. She will just wait and send the 1st semester which will should be good. Taking some AP and other challenging classes.


Sounds great! I’m sure it’s going to work out 😊
