<p>Intended Major: Food Science
ACT: 24
GPA: 3.94</p>

<p>Any chance?</p>

<p>Siegel3, another architecture major! Your stats are much better than mine, you’re likely a shoo-in :)</p>

<p>Haha very kind of you! Your stats certainly aren’t too shabby either ;D Best of luck! (:
I have a feeling they’re making us wait until after UCs are due so everyone still applies else where xD I’m just anticipating submitting all my other apps then finding out like 2 days later -___- Not a bad thing though as long as we get in! (:</p>

<p>I know, they just have to wait until UC apps are sent in, would’ve saved us so much time and stress haha</p>

<p>Happy December 1st! I think we should start hearing back soon!!! Good Luck everybody!</p>

<p>I am so, so nervous! I think I’ll be checking the Portal every night now until I see a change…</p>

<p>Anyone heard anything yet??? I’m freaking out…all I think about is checking the portal…</p>

<p>Intended Major: Liberal Studies
GPA: 4.2
SAT: 1150 (not a high as I want obviously, but hoping GPA makes up for it)
Four years on volleyball team, tons of hours, etc.
Chances??</p>

<p>Intended Major: Computer Engineering
GPA: 3.2-3.4ish Cal Poly Weighted
ACT: 35 Composite (35 English 36 Math 34 Reading 35 Science) [~2340 SAT Scale]</p>

<p>I called Cal Poly. They recalculate your GPA and include 9th grade. I have bad grades fresh + soph year, decent grades junior year. So instead of my 3.64 UC (10th-11th grade) GPA, they include 9th grade as well, which is why Im estimating mine to be so low, around 3.2-3.4 weighted…</p>

<p>Do I have a chance, guys? Terribly low GPA, rigorous high school, 2340 equivalent standardized scores.</p>

<p>I was reading earlier posts, and it looks like the first person to get an answer was on december 8!</p>

<p>Intended Major: BioResource and Agricultural Engineering
GPA: 4.07
SAT: 1410
ACT 30</p>

<p>So stoked waiting to hear back from Cal Poly! I’ve been reading these forums for days! GO MUSTANGS!!</p>

<p>mtnbike247, I applied bioresource and agricultural engineering ED too!
GPA: 4.27
SAT: 1230 (M+CR) (not too good)
So scared to find out! Know anyone else’s stats that is applying brae ED?</p>

<p>Major: Microbiology
GPA: 3.5 (I’m really worried about this)
ACT: 29</p>

<p>So nervous about finding out!! I wish I could see stats for other people applying for microbio</p>

<p>

I disagree and agree. That person heard on the **2nd Thursday ** of December, 2011… oh, wait, we’re both right. But which is it???</p>

<p>Major: Business
Cal Poly GPA: 4.0; UC GPA 4.1
SAT: 620CR/580M
Class Rank: 14% in a very large suburban HS</p>

<p>

Very true. Some applicants with less than great freshman years in HS can have a much higher UC GPA than Cal Poly GPA. Cal Poly will also give a +1 to some Honors courses (e.g. sophomore Honors English) that don’t get a +1 in the UC a-g calculations, so it cuts both ways. </p>

<p>GPA can be such a strange calculation. UC does it one way, Cal Poly another, and a High School might calculate it for class ranking purpses with only AP and no Honors (even if UC gives a +1 to that Honors class).at all, plus throw in the grades for PE and Health.</p>

<p>Intended Major: Political Science
GPA: 3.72
ACT: 28
Class Rank: 47/530 (Top 9%)</p>

<p>Anxiously waiting to hear back for Early Decision!</p>

<p>im not expecting anything until the 8th or 9th, hence year’s pasts dates which have been consistently the 8th or 9th, btw people its not uc, pretty much extra curriculars mean nothing its gpa, sat/act, major. Crossing my fingers they look at testing scores to offset my sub par gpa… Anyone else applying comp engineering here?</p>

<p>ACCEPTED TO CAL POLY EARLY DECISION!! I got in for Food Science</p>
