Until last year, Cal Poly SLO had a $3,000.00 merit scholarship for nationally recognized scholars, including the College Board National Hispanic Recognition Program. My D23 is a National Hispanic Recognition Scholar. I am hoping that Cal Poly SLO still honors this merit. Not sure if it is a one time or renewable each year.

Any chance the student is a NMF/NMSF or NRHS? They receive a $3000 scholarship if you email their proof such as the certificate.

Do you know if the 3K merit scholarship for NMF/NMSF or NHRS is a one-time scholarship on the first year only or it is renewable each year?

If they haven’t heard by now should we assume that means waitlisted or rejected? It seems like everyone got the update at the same time and it’s not trickling in. We were so excited about his UC Davis acceptance for all of 10 minutes before we realized he didn’t get into SLO (his dream school).

Yes, pretty much all admitted students heard on March 10 last year. There were a few postings the next day but they were admitted on March 10 and just posted their information on March 11.

So no reason to think anyone with less than a 4.0 will get in.

My DD got THREE Bs (oh the horror 
) in grades 9-11 and she was just admitted to Cal Poly SLO (as well as UCSC, UCD, and several other great schools). So there is hope for non-perfect students.

Has anyone received an email yet?
How many people are still awaiting a response? Thumbs up this post if you’re portal (or your kid’s portal) hasn’t been updated.
I feel like checking the SLO portal after being accepted to Davis was a major buzz kill for my son.
