Transcript: Applicants are required to upload academic records from each academic institution (undergraduate and/or graduate) attended. Official, original academic credentials that are issued in a language other than English must be accompanied by a certified English translation. These will be considered unofficial copies. Personal Statement: We require applicants to answer a series of short answer questions. If you have not submitted your answers yet, then you may submit your responses online or via email at intladm@pitt.edu. Please be sure to include your full name exactly as it appears on your passport, date of birth, and student ID (if known) in your email. Answer all three questions: Describe yourself. Why is studying in the U.S. and at Pitt a good choice for you? Have you had an experience where you had to adjust to a culture other than your own? Recommendation Letter: Applicants must have their reference letters submitted electronically as part of the online admissions application process.
