Cal Poly SLO SIR Deposit?

So at this point, SLO is my number one but I have a question…does anyone know if the deposit has to be made up front or do they give you some kind of window to submit your deposit? I really want to go to SLO and want to submit my SIR, but I don’t have all the money for the SIR?

When you commit to Cal Poly, you don’t need to pay a deposit. I would suggest going ahead and doing that now, if Cal Poly is where you want to go. Assuming you are a freshman, you do need to pay a deposit of $2125 to secure housing. The sooner you are able to apply for housing and pay the deposit, the more likely it is that you will get one of your housing preferences. The application opened on March 22nd. All freshmen are guaranteed housing, so you will still get placed somewhere, even if you have to wait to pay the deposit.
