<p>I have sent both my ACT and SAT scores to Cal Poly, but I’m worried that my SAT score may hinder my chance of acceptance. My ACT score (31) is average for people that were accepted for engineering majors but my SAT score is a bit lower than the average. So how exactly are the scores considered and will a semi-low SAT score hurt my chances of being accepted?</p>
<p>Cal Poly will take the higher of the 2 scores. Your lower SAT won’t hurt you.</p>
