PIT’s 100% acceptance rate means admission is likely within reach, but the 50% freshman retention rate makes fit and support especially important. Since PIT is test-optional, submit SAT or ACT scores only if they strengthen your academic profile, and focus just as much on program choice, cost, and campus resources.

Take tests early for the best outcomes

If you choose to submit SAT or ACT scores to test-optional PIT, take your first test by the spring of junior year so summer and fall can be used for retakes and possible superscoring. Since PIT does not offer Early Decision or Early Action, use its Regular Decision deadline as your admission anchor and choose the latest fall retake whose scores will arrive in time.
