University of Pittsburgh Economics Graduate School Admission Results

God bless Steelers. God bless Peñarol.

Details to follow. So happy!

Email for acceptance but not formal offer yet. Want phone call to discuss their program.

I recieved the exact same letter as the other waitlistee who posted. "the waiting list is not long"

I have got wailisted for the University of Pittsburgh and UCSD for a long time. When will they send out final decisions to applicants who are on the waiting lists? If any one of your receive the admission but decide not to attend those schools, please reject the offer as soon as possible. Thanks a lot.

I donnot think they should reject me!

Seriously???

I didn't see a strong fit with my research interest but I was hoping at least to be wait-listed. It sucks that I started with 4 positive admission results and now I have received 5 negative ones and I am still waiting on 5 more. Hopefully, I will get funding somewhere.

A bit painful, I thought I was competitive here considering the stats on other admits but oh well, I already have an offer I am happy with.

Thank you sincerely for applying to the graduate program in Economics at the University of Pittsburgh. We regret to inform you, however, that we cannot grant you admission to our program at this time. This year a record number of applicants (over 400) competed for fewer slots than in previous years. The Admissions Committee did its best to select a small group of people who will benefit from and contribute to the department and the university. Our decision on your application in no way reflects your ability to be successful in your academic pursuits, but rather that the choices this year were particularly difficult. Thank you again for your interest in our PhD program and for your thoughtful application. Please accept our best wishes as you make your plans for the upcoming year.
