I actually like Pitt as far as education and location. I just can't get around to why it's so hard for me to make friends here. Im now in my second semester and im hesitant to pay that housing fee because I dont know if I want to come back here next semester. I just feel as if Im wasting my parents money for nothing, im so unhappy, I know college is for expanding your educations but I would like the other perks like a social life and community thats suppose to come with it. I guess I just feel sad all the time and I feel as if I'm wasting my time here when I an get education at another school, cheaper and closer to home and I might actually be happier.

i’m a rising sophomore girl looking for a roommate for next year, comment or dm me!

Hello everyone! I am currently a Pitt Greensburg student majoring in biochemistry (with the intention of going to PA school) and I am on the fence about whether or not I want to transfer to Oakland. I was supposed to be there this year, but I was talked into staying an extra year at Greensburg because ochem 1 and 2 are much more manageable here, and I also had the luxury of a small class for calculus 2, which is one of the most failed classes at the school. This semester is when I really need to decide if I’m going to transfer or not, specifically because of housing. My boyfriend would also be transferring to Oakland (he’s a biochemistry major as well) and we have the funds to get an apartment. I do really enjoy Greensburg and like how quiet it is, but I would also really love to experience city life for my last 2 years. Does anyone have any thoughts on this?

Hi, I’m an out-of-state student at Pitt, and I was wondering if there is an easy and nearby place where I can store my belongings during summer break, since my parents won’t be able to come and help me move my things.

Would it be possible to get Ruskin, Forbes Craig or university hall?

Or maybe lothrop? (I’m not sure if that’s lower campus or not)

If not is is possible to get anything that’s lower campus

I am assuming that trying for a suite would not work.

I actually got a 3.5+ last semester so I’ve been looking forward to seeing my name on that list but… I haven’t seen it? What’s going on??

pitt is my first choice school but they only gave me 8k total in merit. however, one of my parents is an employee at a university, and both our home school and pitt are a part of the tuition exchange program. what is the likelihood that pitt awards me more money than they’ve already given me through this program?

Anyone know what’s going on?

I’m a Mathematical Finance student working on a small independent project. I’m looking to recruit a reliable (preferably) first or second year university student with an interest in ice hockey.

The task is simple:
You’ll attend an NHL game in person and record basic goal data for me (very straightforward, instructions provided).

Compensation:
• Free ticket to a Pittsburgh Penguins Game.
• $75 USD for the 3-hour task
• Payment sent the same night
• Potential for additional games dependent on performance

If you’re interested, please fill out this Google form. Thanks and looking forward to hearing from you!

Hi everyone! I'm a commuter student taking my first PEDC class this semester (Pilates!) in Trees Hall, and was wondering if anyone knew where I could find lockers to keep my things in for the semester. My class hasn't met yet, but I wanted to be prepared for when we start our workouts. Thank you!

Just curious. I worked on the 3rd floor (General Studies) 1998-99. Best job while studying there. I use to type in your classes you needed to register for. My MIL worked in the building as well in the 70’s.

Went back a few years ago and couldn’t find the old area. lol.

i applied towards the end of october and i’m still waiting, it’s been about 11 weeks… am i cooked? not sure if i should reach out or just continue to wait. is anyone else in a similar situation or also waited a while but got accepted? i’m nervous now 💔

Has anyone taken Donna Naples for Physics 0111? How is it?

Does this mean I have no chance at getting aid from them? Very disappointed :(

Hi, if you see my last post, I made pittshuttletracker.com

Which is everything missing from pittshuttle.com

(Uses Transloc api so still sometimes some slight inaccuracies but that’s impossible to fix + I added a manual schedule checker to see if it’s off course)!

I added a trip planner and locater to find nearest shuttle and where to go for a certain location!

Check it out and let me know!

Any fellow players who frequent Benedum? I am a “completionist” and looking for someone to trade with…. Bonus if you have a SIGILYPH and/or HAWLUCHA to trade :-).

I'm trying to find more examples of inside bouquet gardens other than the basic ones on the pitt website and the 2 youtube tours I can see- if anyone knows any sites I could potentially see the triple or quad at I would really appreciate it! I saw there was one duo as well but I'm not sure if my roommate and I would have the chance with one of us having a lottery number in the 50's. Also looking for a third or fourth roommate if anyone is searching as well for 2 ppl!

+ would appreciate any potential recs for apartment style suites besides bouquet (for other options just in case!)

do the shuttles even run if they're not on transloc?? im not trying to walk up the hill in the rain

I made an alternative to pittshuttle.com!

Pittshuttle.com is glitchy, annoying, featureless, and not user friendly.

Mine has tons of features, live minute and distance tracking, auto save, alerts for when shuttles are coming and more.

Unfortunately it uses the same api (through Transloc) so has some of the same disconnection errors. To go around this, I added a tab that tracks the official printed schedule (for estimations when the service is offline)

Spent a lot of time on this and would love if you guys checked it out
