Diversity Success

At Pitt, students are connected with new experiences, supportive mentors, and a vibrant community. Learn more about the various resources and organizations that will be available to you.

A list of scholarships for diversity students is on our website. We also have programs designed especially for our minority student population that support you and help you feel connected to the University as you work to achieve your goals. These programs are offered by various University of Pittsburgh departments. We encourage you to explore their websites for additional details.

Social

Pitt Cross Cultural and Leadership Development (CCLD) is a place where students, particularly underrepresented groups of students, can seek support and guidance as they pursue experiences and opportunities in and out of the classroom. Numerous student organizations are housed in CCLD. These organizations align with the CCLD mission to assist in the development of students, increase cultural awareness and competencies, and promote social responsibility.
