Members are discussing the number of seats offered in a program, with some confusion about the exact number of full-time and part-time spots available. There is also debate about the fairness of offering acceptances early in the interview process and concerns about the scoring system. Additionally, members are inquiring about additional interview dates and waiting for acceptance notifications by the end of the month.
Hi all, just submitted my app on 11/10 and attended a zoom information session last night. Good luck everyone!

I would think part time would move to full time. People who got the email will be part time? They may be doing like this because 18 of the 20 part time last cohort were offered full-time admissions

It was implied to me over a phone call with someone from the school that if full-time spot open up, they would move up part-timers, also a full-time student can request to go part-time, and so on or so forth... so I guess they'd make those on a "waitlist" part-time if a spot opens?
When I had my interview, the director said like almost everyone on the part time list moved up to the full time position that started in January. Obviously, a good chunk of people in this groups have received other offers so they know not everyone will say yes to them. I think the delayed decision is to eventually offer a part time spot once people move up from part time to start full time in January.

The excitement from you guys is palpable 😂. I am here refreshing my inbox to hopefully see if they've sent me an official offer/Pitt email link.
