I was on that Zeemee thing for a while, but it’s mostly freshmans so I felt out of place. That’s why I came here.

So am I! At least this way I know a decision won’t just pop up in my face lol

I meant list your Stats in the same post as your Decision. Hahaaaa :rofl:

It’ll be too difficult for people to search your names that are buried in all these posts to find out what your Stats were.

It you wanna post your Stats now - that’s fine too - But remember during your Decision posts to post your Stats again & Yes/No to the 25% related to your major.

Stay Strong, everybody :love_you_gesture: :crossed_fingers:

Yep, and sometimes my heart skips a beat cause the ā€œNo determination has been made at this time.ā€ looks different at first glance.

@sciencegal23 - Yes, scholarships & financial aid packages will come out at the same time as your Decisions.

It will be found in your portal under ā€œMoney Mattersā€ tab which is at the top of your portal page.

It’ll have a breakdown, itemized list of grants & scholarships that you were awarded, then it’ll have a total. It will also tell you the amount in loans you qualify for but you don’t have to accept the loans.

Cal Poly SLO’s tuition is $10,077 per year. So subtract your financial aid, grants & scholarships from the $10,077.

Cal Poly Scholar:
You don’t have to apply to be a Cal Poly Scholars. Admissions & Financial Aid office will evaluate your application & select certain people based on many factors. Once you become a Cal Poly Scholar, you will have it for the rest of your time at Cal Poly. You don’t have to worry about it every year. Cal Poly Scholar picks up the difference that your financial aid doesn’t cover to award you Full Tuition. Cal Poly Scholars also buys you a $900 laptop of your choosing from their bookstore… and a t-shirt :rofl:

Everybody —

Keep asking whatever questions you want. I hated the unknown & most on here would make it up cuz they were just guessing.

I am a student at Cal Poly so I’ve gone through the process & if I don’t know the answer, then I will go ask my advisers & tell you.

I don’t care how little or silly you think your questions are. Just ask & we’ll get it answered.

What is the GPA they consider for Cal Poly scholars? Or does it range? That’s awesome that they cover whatever fafsa doesn’t in tuition.

Thanks so much for trying to answer all our questions!!
