Every single class I was planning to take this semester is closed! Like Gen chem 2 CLOSED every single one what do I do 😭😭😭😭

I’ve been pretty disappointed at the food I’ve had since I started my semester here. I’ve went to a few of the Yelp recommended places like Tako and Kaya, in Oakland I’ve been to oishii bento, k-town snack bar, Mount Everest sushi and jj poke, they’ve all been disappointing and overpriced. For such highly rated spots, I would’ve expected way more, coming from the bay, people in Pittsburgh probably have different expectations when it comes to Asian food, but I thought it would be better since people have told me Pittsburgh is a pretty good spot for food. Anyone know any better spots? I’m looking for maybe some korean fried chicken, Thai, or dim sum.

Im not bad at math for any particular reason, but my major has nothing to do with health/science/mathematics and if I’m honest I just want an easy gen ed for quantitative reasoning. If there’s any feedback on a specific professor too it’s much appreciated!!

Hey all! I recently lost my beloved Pitt sweatshirt in the depths of South Oakland. It has been with me for all of college and then some, so if anyone has come across it, I would be more than grateful! I've attached a flyer for your viewing, but here's a brief description: a navy hoodie with "PITT" in gold and white across the front. Embellishments on the arms and mending with gold thread on the wrist area of each sleeve (pictures included). Please this has devastated my week so if there are any leads out there, I will love you forever :)

Hi! I am a freshman who is looking to transfer into the school of education. Does anyone know how competitive this is? I know there is pre-reqs I have to complete, which I am working on, but just was wondering if it was super hard to get into. Thanks!

I just got accepted into the greensburg campus for nursing. I just need honest thoughts on the campus, location, and how the nursing program is over there. Is it super competitive? Are the teachers good? Etc.

Hi everyone! I am conducting research on food insecurity at Pitt for my soc capstone! I'm currently look for participants to fill out a short (5-10 min), anonymous survey regarding questions about food access and insecurity. If you are interested in completing the survey please follow the link below, it would help out immensely!

I'm currently registering for classes and I have 3 WEB based classes on my schedule, is there a limit to how many I can take? If so, how many? And can you also tell me about experiences with Web based classes?

Have anyone been to Pitt pantry? What do they have usually? I know it changes depending on the week. But do they regularly have rice egg and some kind of protein?

i’m looking for an arts gen-ed and i would like it to be easy since im a stem major and have some other hefty classes, is this class difficult? if not, what are some other easy arts gen-ed’s?

I see online that there’s no waitlist for recitations, yet the recitation I want has someone on it. Every time I try to change the section, it gives me an error that the class is full.

How do you join a recitation waitlist?

This should be fun…

I'm a male British student looking to exchange in the US and I would love to know some honest insights from Pitt students. Particularly about the things I wouldn't necessarily find from Pitt's website and the things you wish you knew before attending the college, the good and the bad things. I am also curious as to what social life is like at Pitt with the drinking age being 21, I'm not massively bothered on going out but it is nice to once in a while. I'm assuming that because of the laws potentially student clubs/organisations may be the way people socialise/make friends but please correct me if I'm wrong. Honestly any insight into whether you would recommend Pitt or not as a study abroad location would be very helpful, thank you.

Hey everybody. I am currently writing a research paper for one of my writing courses. For the class I have to make a survey to go along with my paper. Its about substance abuse and how it relates to academic performance. Also mainly focused on college students, but high school students should work as well. If this is something that interests you and applies to you, I would appreciate your time in taking my survey. It should only take roughly 5-8 minutes of your time. If not, please disregard this post. Thank you! The survey will be linked here:

Anyone with housing that costs $300 per month? Please DM.

I recently got accepted into Pitt for the Fall 2025 term. I’m struggling a lot in AP Calc so far this year. I ended my first marking period with an 84 which is fine, but I have a test tmrw that could quite literally cook me. Do you guys think getting a C or D in one marking period will cause Pitt to revoke my acceptance? Thanks

I received an acceptance letter from Pitt today, so I go to commit in the portal but my application still says “pending” and the “accept/decline” tap says “no information at this time”. Is this normal I probably just need to be patient and let it update but was wondering if anyone else experienced this?

A bunch of kids at my school applied to Pitt and people are making a huge deal about what campus they were assigned, however I just assumed it was based on the major you applied (I am out of state so I am not really familiar with PA landscape) I applied as public health and got the Pittsburgh campus, is that good or bad in relation to my major and how easy it is to get to classes?

I haven’t committed yet but I am looking at dorming options. Everyone says the towers is best for freshman since you get that social experience that I’m looking for. The only issue is I have a huge thing where I cannot sleep in-front of people. Idk why, but I definitely need some privacy. That’s also a good reason I chose Pitt bc they offer singles to freshman where my other option doesn’t. However I fear I won’t make friends.

I have a very very hard time making friends , but I want college to be different and be able to socialize a lot and have fun. Will I not get this experience in tower C? I know everyone has singles but seeing people say everyone in C just keeps to themselves and is very quiet is worrying me. Should I suck it up and get B or A so that I can really get that college experience I seek or will I be ok in C?

Just curious if anyone has a place they really liked!

I got accepted to pitt's first year engineering program, but I plan to major in eviornmental engineering. I am considering committing, but I want to learn more about the program. What are it's pros and cons? Is there anything specific I should know? Also money isn't an issue, I ended up getting a pretty solid scholarship!

The spray paint/graffiti bridge by Parkview/Blvd of the Allies (Charles Anderson bridge) is now completely fenced off. I live right near it and it was such a convenient shortcut to the schenley walking trails/CMU. Now I have to loop all the way around South O to get over there. Anyone have any secret shortcut to take? This is really annoying.

Is there curves for microbiology and how much are they?

Will there be a curve for the class or exams?

Hi friends, I’m planning to attend Pitt starting next fall and I was curious about lofting beds. Are there any dorms in which it’s possible to completely loft the bed? I’m talking like, able to fit a desk under it. TYIA!

Got accepted and thinking about committing, how is political sphere on campus? I am doing Poli Sci…. Is everyone very liberal? Are there a lot of trump supporters? do most people not care,? Just asking. I know Pitt is a blue city but PA is a swing state so

Hey, I am doing primary research for my English comp 0400 class and was wondering if any students who applied for housing in the past two years (2022-2024) could take this anonymous survey?
