Cal Poly SLO Class of 2025 Regular Decision

So no decisions were released today at all?

I have a bad feeling i got rejecetd from cal poly slo. Although I don’t know if any transfer notices got out yet? I don’t think so

Only freshman so far?

some people did already get accepted to SE :frowning: I hope acceptances aren’t by major. Gl to you!

On their main Instagram page @calpoly, they posted today: ā€œAre you #CalPolyBound? Acceptances for 2021-2022 will be sent out over the next several weeks. All applicants will be notified of their admission status by April 1.ā€ So if you haven’t gotten a decision yet, you most certainly haven’t gotten rejected or waitlisted. I believe in all of you guys, I never imagined myself getting into SLO, so if I was able to get in so can all of you!

It doesn’t start with a 4 :joy:. Hoping UC’s will see something in me or out of state I go which is what I assume will be the case. I’ve got options out of state.

That was me lol! Rejected by CSULB, waitlisted by CPP, and into CPSLO. I’m seeing a huge trend of this happening amongst other students too, so it makes me hopeful for the students on here!

Maybe you CS kids can do a side project to give back and propose to SLO once you’re in to contain the acceptances, find database and email blast capacity to, I don’t know, send all the notifications out all at once. It is just an idea from such a strong STEM school.

Not sure how accurate this is…but I’ve heard slo does acceptances first, waitlist next, and finally rejections to not overflow their phone/call system.

I heard that too! I looked on a reddit thread from last year and acceptances came out within a span of a few days, the next week waitlists came out, and then a week or two later rejections did. I don’t like how SLO does that. I wonder why they do.

That’s what’s being said on this thread and likely so. However, I did see a couple people mention on the Cal Poly instagram account that they were rejected and another waitlisted. So this contradicts the acceptances, waitlist, rejection theory.

Yeah I’ve seen that pattern too. One of my counselors, who once worked for cal poly slo, once told me that they do that because they will receive a overwhelming number of calls! And so this supposably helps them with that. Don’t quote me though! Idk how true this is…

Oh wow I didn’t even realize people had already received rejections! :frowning:

Some people get ā€œrejectedā€ because there’s something wrong with their application, like they don’t even meet the minimum requirements, like the A-G stuff. So, I think it’s safe to assume that some early rejections are that kind of thing. (I know this because my son, a homeschooled student with an unconventional background, got that from SJSU. We’ve appealed. :slight_smile: )

3.79 UC/CS Gpa for 10-11 4.2 weighted. I’m not sure what it was for 9-11 since I didn’t see the calculation on the application. I can try to figure it out and post. Lots of ECs mostly sports oriented with leadership, mentoring. founder/ leader of club. Some community service (church volunteering) during all high school years. Working part time summers since 10th grade and some vacations for family business. 4 years language, 5 years math (including 8th grade algebra and AP calculus senior year). 8 AP’s in total. Dual enrollment language class junior year. My son’s stats were not out of this world. Where I think he shined was class rigor( he took all APs offfered) especially senior year. Excellerated math and the extra two years of language I think also helped increase MCA points. Good luck to your daughter next year!

Does anyone know when EOP decisions will come out, if they haven’t, or I’m not too sure how the EOP proccess works. If I get EOP that would leverage this choice so much more, but again I’m not too sure how selective it is, or if it’s even selective lol.

If we don’t hear by the end of this week, would you assume waitlist/rejected? I called the admissions office today, and the woman said that the order of the decisions coming out is randomized by a computer, with no rhyme or reason. I hope this is true!
