My daughter graduated from Pitt (OT). It is an awesome medical school and has really good programs for anything medical. The University is surrounded by 5 or 6 top hospitals and they do a lot of research and the undergrad and grad students can get lots of experience volunteering and get hours because there are so many opportunities there. Not surprised that they are advancing this quickly. Lots of folks don't know how good of a school it is but its terrific. Thanks for posting.
