@lankysequoia Last year I was missing one major prep course and my gpa was 3.90. Other than that everything was the same. It seems Cal Poly favors students who have all prep done or in progress over students who have really high gpa. I feel as if they don’t even consider you if you don’t have all prep done or in progress. At least for the business admin major.
Business Administration Major, 3.74 now (was 3.68) when I applied. Will have everything completed by Spring. Still haven’t heard anything back, don’t give up hope, just wait it out and good things will come
ya bus admin still a lot of us waiting, bizarrely some bus admin people heard back day 1 as well though.
Yeah, it is really weird some heard on day 1. Still nothing on my portal as well for Business Administration, though.
Bus admin here as well. Judging by those who put their CCC in their acceptance posts, a couple were in the Southern California area, anyone from NorCal get accepted yet?
@jonathaanv If it helps any, I’m from NorCal - Bay Area.
I’m from the Bay Area too and haven’t heard anything yet for Psych, my last major requirement will be done by the end of spring 2017, 3.68 GPA, any psych majors on here that heard back? I haven’t seen any rejections on here
Yeah I’m from the bay as well ha, Idk I’m just going to keep checking everyday. Reading that decisions are still coming out is a good thing, but I’m just like let me know already!!!
Wondering if the portal changes from “no determination…” to “pending review” prior to being accepted?
@jrmacias yes they will, but most of the admissions decisions they send going into march and april are denials, not acceptances.
@zanebob I have a 3.8 for one of their least impacted majors and I’m also missing a class. I haven’t heard back yet and I’m pretty sure I’m screwed. All throughout this forum, there are acceptances from students who barely have a 3.0 but finished all the major prep. I honestly think it’s pretty unfair. It’s not that hard to finish 1 measly class after transferring. A high GPA really demonstrates a commitment to academic excellence.
I’m waiting to be accepted as a communications major as well. Getting very nervous here. I doubt I’m getting accepted here at this point. Bummer because this was my first choice. /:
Have you heard from any Comm. majors being accepted yet?

@mysticalforest I dunno about that, I had all major classes done by the FALL and have a moderate GPA (3.49 at time of app, now 3.59, plus +0.1 from ADT) and havent heard a thing.
@Jaximus Same, I had completed all of my GEs and required major courses for the AS-T and still nothing. I think by the time March rolls around and if there’s still no change, I’ll just expect a rejection.
@obiglokenobi haven’t heard of any comm majors accepted, but a friend of mine got accepted under journalism. Not sure if they are similar on acceptance terms.
Congrats on those who got accepted so far. I was just wondering if SLO was rolling out decisions by major or last name. I’m a business major and my last name starts with a P. Should I go break the whisky out or keep on waiting
@mysticalforest Dude, applying for a school that very clearly states you won’t be competitive if you don’t complete all major prep really demonstrates an inability to read directions. Be happy for those who were (likely because they did as Cal Poly asked and completed all major prep) and start getting excited for your other choices. Your 3.8 gpa and your commitment to academic excellence lead me to believe you will be successful wherever you end up.
@mysticalforest Plus you don’t know if you didn’t get in! Sounds like there will be another wave maybe even tomorrow! As others have said, it’s not over till it’s over. I have many friends still waiting to hear, don’t give up yet!
