Cal Poly Pomona Fall 2017 Transfer Thread

Waitlisted for Mechanical Engineering. GPA: 3.36
what are the chances of getting off the waitlist?

Wait-listed Nutrition-Dietetics. Let’s remain hopeful and positive. We will be Broncos!!

@socaldogmom If you don’t mind, what school are you attending? I’m at Chaffey.

@permanentglue Yup, waitlisted. I received an email this evening that stated I was waitlisted, then went to the site an my status changed from “ready for decision” to “pending student response.” I clicked on the waitlist link they provided me, the re-entered my site credentials, then filled out the quick waitlist form for Fall 2017. They stated that if there is any spaces left for enrollment by the end of May that my application would be reconsidered… this does not mean it guarantees enrollment though.

Waitlisted for CS. Question, could I SIR to CSULB and wait for CPP’s response to my waitlist? (CPP is my first choice). Is this acceptable?

@CFMatti Yes, but any deposit fees that you will pay at CSULB will be non-refundable. You’d just email their admissions office and let them know you won’t be attending.

Waitlisted for biochem. Honestly I’m still pretty happy with that. It’s better than flat out denied :slight_smile:

@justinmega1 Ok, I see. thank you

GPA, 3.75. Denied for CS with status: Denied, CSU Elig, Not Redirect. Expected it honestly lol… I have no physics and no speech class.

@IwcWombat Unfortunately, those Golden Four are essential. Did you have your speech class planned at all?

@Brit.Bermoy

Hmmm, you made me think of this application process like a breakup in the early dating phase.

Would you rather be broken up with straight up (denial) or be strung along (waitlisted) for a few more months until CPP finds somebody else they’d rather court? :-?

Lol, yeah I guess. However, CP was my first choice and I’ve had a long road leading up to this point in my life. After a few denials from my lesser choices, I was actually glad to see that I had the potential and met their requirements.

I kinda felt that way too when I got their email last night, hence why I accepted their waitlist offer. Did they ever ask for your transcripts or just decide on your self-entered info?

They requested the first transcripts in January and I sent those, but so far that’s it.

@purplesuede23
I’m also at Chaffey. I was accepted at CSUSB for their nutrition & dietetics program but I’m really hoping I get into Cal Poly. I feel like CPP’s program seems better and I like/ know the area of CPP pretty well. Apparently we will know for sure by the start of June?

@Brit.Bermoy That’s good, it shows their interest in you, IMO. They didn’t ask for mine, but still waitlisted me on the info I entered from 5 different transcripts. I think they saw my academic mess and said, “we’ll deal with you later” hahaha

Keep the hope alive [-O<

@Neeman123
We get to go crazy for another month and a half of waiting. :’(

@socaldogmom Exactly! ~X(

@socaldogmom We’re in the same boat.

@purplesuede23 Good to know I’m not completely alone in this situation
