University of Pittsburgh Program in Microbiology and Immunology (Pitt PMI)

Pitt is my top choice, and they release sometime in February. I am super excited about this program and hopeful that I will get an offer, but the waiting is killing me. I heard they call people they accept, so every time it hits 5 pm EST and I haven't received a phone call, my heart sinks a little...

I'm dying to talk to other PMI applicants and/or people who are hoping to start grad school at Pitt in the fall... If you're out there, let's commiserate!

Hello! My interview was the weekend of January 29th. They gave me two options, the weekend of the 22nd or the weekend of the 29th. 

I'm not sure if there are separate interviews for international students... I know there was one girl at my interview weekend who was an international student but I believe she did her undergraduate in the US so she may have been lumped in with domestic applicants, I'm not sure. Sorry I can't be of more help!

I interviewed there first weekend and haven't heard back yet. I saw a few posting acceptances/ rejections, but only 3 or 4. The website said they do rolling admissions until march 1st, so hopefully we don't have to wait much longer. 

Same here, haven't heard anything yet. Someone posted that they had been sent a rejection letter by email apparently so hopefully we hear back soon... I suspect the fact that I haven't been called yet means I didn't get in, but I hope I'm mistaken :P
