Will anyone be declining a Pittsburgh offer in the near future? I have been waitlisted there, and I am nearly, say, eighty percent decided on another program. However, I would like to delay for a short while longer if that would increase my odds at Pittsburgh.

First post - long time lurker. Weird, you and I have very similar outcomes. I have had the incredible fortune of being accepted to Virginia, WUSTL, and Georgetown and waitlisted at the University of Pittsburgh. I am currently visiting Virginia as we speak. Lovely people. Their placement record is actually quite strong, far better even than similarly ranked departments but I say bah humbug to the the rankings. Over the past few years, they have successfully placed anywhere from sixty to eighty percent of job candidates into tenure-track jobs within two to three years after completing the degree. Unfortunately, you and I do not share the good fortune of being accepted to Yale. I received my rejection just this morning while en route to Virginia. You've done right well for yourself. Congratulations; I hope the decision process is easy. And that the information above will be of assistance.
