“I love Pitt. It's a great school and there is always something to do; on campus or a short bus ride away downtown.

“Pitt- Good Enough I'll say that much.BrightUndecided
Pitt- Good Enough I'll say that much. As many already know. if you don't drink, there's little to do. Very surprising in a big city, which by the way is overrated. Pittsburgh is definitely NOT the place I would want to spend the rest of my life. Their engineering school is tough to get in to. Why? Don't know because Pitt isnt THAT great of an engineering school. Profs here are generally approachable, not too many problems. Students here (in general) are not the greatest people, being that quite a few are of course from the area and the others who've got snotty because of being here so long. So basically, if you drink and party a lot this place is for you. If you are not a drinker and not too much of a partyer, better find some really cool friends because this place does not very much to offer...
