The Pitt Finish Line Grant is our way of directing resources to those students who need them most and help ensure they graduate on time.鈥
The introduction of the Pitt Finish Line Grant is just the latest way the University is of creating an inclusive and equitable campus.
鈥淲hen we established the Pitt Success Pell Match program a few years ago, we learned quickly of the transformative impact of that effort. In fact, since the launch of that program, Pitt鈥檚 students have persisted, and ultimately graduated, at the highest rates in our institution鈥檚 history,鈥 said Interim Provost and Senior Vice Chancellor Joe McCarthy. 鈥淭he Pitt Finish Line Grant is a tremendous and timely addition to Pitt鈥檚 strong and strategic efforts to ensure that students in need at the 91porn视频 are empowered to realize their goals of earning a Pitt degree.鈥
The program will support students across all five University campuses and will target those who may be lower income, first generation and Pell enrolled.
