@Waverider3377 This was for my son. We didn’t check his portal until around 8am Saturday Feb. 18, so I suppose it might have been posted the night before. There still is no email from Cal Poly to alert him to the change in status.
are they still sending out acceptances? if my portal doesn’t update by the end of march, is it safe to say that I got rejected?
^^^ yes, the large thread of admission results is located here: http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/cal-poly-san-luis-obispo/1926331-cal-poly-regular-decision-thread-2016-2017-p1.html

@8o6peary When did you check?
@mtd1111 Been looking at the Official Cal Poly Slo Class of 2020 Regular Decision Thread. So far haven’t seen any acceptances that came out in March. Hard to tell with a few posts because they don’t always say when they found their acceptance result. A lot of rejections came out March 1.
But one thing that was surprising is that so far I have seen at least four posters with high stats who were denied at Cal Poly but got into a UC–like UCSD, Berkeley, and one who got into all the UCs. Did you apply to the UCs?
@Waverider3377 - she saw update this morning. She could not tell when the status was updated though; she did not check her portal last week.
