Cal Poly Pomona - Winter Transfer 2018

Hello, everybody. I was wondering whether you have received any updates for the application for the Winter quarter 2018.
Also, I would like to know whether someone is applying to any STEM major? and How much is your GPA?
My major is industrial engineering GPA 3.31

Hi!

I applied and my application is now under review.
Major: Philosophy
G.P.A.: 3.56

Major: Construction Engineering (alt: Industrial Engineering)
GPA: 3.3~something
Golden Four: complete, 3 B’s and 1 A
80+ transferrable units incl. required GE

As a note to anyone this pertains to, if you sent your transcript in on time but it still shows as outstanding on your MyCPP, you can call the Admissions office and ask them to check & confirm that they have your transcript. I sent both my transcripts in last month on Sept 11th for FJC and Mt Sac and while the system confirmed receipt of my Mt Sac transcript within a few days, it still hasn’t confirmed my FJC transcript (deadline is today). Girl over the phone confirmed with my Bronco ID that my transcript is in storage, it just needs to be processed still.

She also said decisions for admission should be released between end of October (Oct 25th starting) to early November.

& though the deadline for this winter application was extended twice all the way until September, just fyi your current Fall classes that you’re taking won’t be considered for admission. In case anyone would find that info interesting as I did. :slight_smile:

Has anyone received an admission decision yet?

I think it was Oct 18th that my status changed from “Need Documents”, to “Ready for Review”. But it is still showing that they haven’t processed my transcripts yet. I sent my transcripts Sept 12th.

Oh alright, I thought it was just me. I have been at ready for review since late September. :frowning:

My status has officially changed to Pending Admissions Decision! And according to the admissions office at CPP, decisions for admission should have officially begun today Oct 25th.

Lol MyCPP is pretty bullcrap though, on my status info it reads: “You may expect an admission decision by the end of May for a Fall term start or early December for a Winter term start.”

Doesn’t even make sense since the registration period for winter term is oct 30-nov 17.

I also applied for Winter 2018 term, but when I spoke with a representative from the admissions office they said decisions will go out the 30 or 31of Oct

Mine was a rep also, but yours was probably correct since it seems no one got a response yet. I’ll take October 30th over November lol!

I’m still at “ready for review” with transcripts showing requested. I called a couple times to see if they received them and maybe just not in system yet, but no one will check. They just say that they got lots of transcripts to look though and can’t check.

Im not local, is that why they aren’t updating my status? Any non local applicants have an updated status or still reading transcripts requested?

My transcripts were acknowledged as received and accepted on 9/12, the day after they were requested and my profile changed to ready for review in late September and I’m not local…I’m in LA county but not considered local to them

:(( I’m going to call again today. Thank you @mhern04.

@MLopez24 I took a few classes at mt. sac but the majority of my units are FJC so I’m not local. Just keep calling the admissions office because I know they’re able to at least check and confirm for you that they have your transcript. If anything don’t worry cause as long as you did due diligence to send it in on time they’re OK

No problem…I know CPP is known for a slow admissions process but this Winter seems to be lagging even more…looking back at the threads, a couple of Winter quarters ago they had decisions rolling out by early-mid October :-??

I just called lol because I’m neurotic. Rep asked the people in the back and confirmed that decisions will be rolled out in waves during these next few days (end of oct).

Yay! Thanks for letting us know @messybun !!!

I just called again, finally someone took their time to check. They received my transcripts which are complete with my AS-T completed Spring 2017, also all my golden 4 done and major requirements complete to transfer. But they didn’t process them; he said maybe because it’s showing I’m taking an extra/non-required class this fall 2017, showing in-progress.

He said he’s going to flag my application to have it looked at. I might have to accept for spring 18 at another school.

@MLopez24 Because you’re currently taking non-req classes? That doesn’t make sense because I’m also currently taking classes at FJC for this current Fall semester. Fall 2017 isn’t even considered for winter term application; the cut-off for classes that count is Summer 2017. Sounds strange.

@messybun I agree, its strange.

Do you think they’re going to admit fewer students this winter compared to last year?
