<p>What do you guys think it will be?</p>

<p>We’ve only got the gist of it from the stats posted from people on this forum (courtesy of @taehunchoi for summing it up here <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/cal-poly-san-luis-obispo/1626232-sum-up-the-whole-gpa-sat-act-from-the-thread-of-cal-poly-slo.html#latest”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/cal-poly-san-luis-obispo/1626232-sum-up-the-whole-gpa-sat-act-from-the-thread-of-cal-poly-slo.html#latest</a>)</p>

<p>I wouldn’t be surprised if Cal Poly surpasses all public CA universities except for UCB & UCLA in ranking based on stats of incoming freshmen enrolled students. These are the stats of the top 10 currently available on the College Board website. Cal Poly is priced well below every other school with comparable freshmen statistics, making it the most attractive option for many.</p>

<p>Rivalries of Cal Poly SLO are UCSD,UCSB,UCD. The Rate of the Answer Between 4 Univs are very close, Narrow.</p>

<p>I’d say SLO is like Davis, SB, and Irvine. Hard to compare acceptance rates because the middle UC’s are backups for a lot of competitive UCLA and Berkeley applicants, and I’m sure many people applying to lower csu’s throw in SLO just because it is convenient. But the fact its test scores are what they are pretty much solidifies that its a great school.</p>
