<p>I think there actually was spots, I just had to put my 3rd grade under “summer 1”. I really do give up though. </p>
<p>I know Cal Poly requires two years of algebra (4 semesters). I listed I took algebra 2/trig. I always listed statistics and pre calc. Do those count as algreba courses? I totally forgot to put down my algebra 1 course from 8th grade. Or do you think that’ll they’ll see I tokm algreba 2, implying I took algebra 1?</p>
<p>just checked the average business admin major stats of the accepted last yr
GPA: 3.9
ACT: 29
my GPA is 4.05 but my ACT is a 27 :((
i swear im getting white hairs from this…</p>
<p>Ah, I don’t know if the computer will pick that up… I really don’t like that there is zero human interaction. Its going to deny a lot of people who are well qualified. </p>
<p>The portal has a notification that says something along the lines of “the portal will be down from 8 pm to 12 am.” They had the same thing last year and the day after they started releasing acceptances! It could be tomorrow!</p>
<p>it will say “congratulations…etc…”</p>
<p>That’s a lie, the red bricks do have air conditioning </p>
<p>@roxy401 then how would they measure rigor?</p>
<p>Honors points and taking extra classes beyond the minimum. I have a screen shot of a post of how they calculate the MCA score. It seems to make sense, but then again it isn’t an official document. </p>
<p>How small are the red brick, is it to the point that it’s annoying/uncomfortable? </p>
<p>@roxy401 do you think you can share the screenshot of how they achieve the MCA score?</p>
<p>The red bricks are honestly not small. you can move your furniture to make it seem more roomier as well. I live in Yosemite though and I love it</p>
<p>I can’t figure out how to upload it and share it so I’ll retype it:</p>

The maximum GPA they will use is 4.2, even though you can have a higher calculated CP GPA. A 4.2 is worth 2250 MCA points. Thus, multiply your CP GPA by 535.7 and you’ll get your MCA points for GPA.</p>
<p>The next biggest thing is test scores. The odd thing, likely because they wanted it to total a nice round number, is that the max score is 1650, even though the max SAT score is 1600. Multiply the total of your best SAT CR and your best SAT math by 1.03125 to get your MCA test points. If you took the ACT, they convert and vice versa.</p>
<p>The third largest section is the class rigor score, worth 750 points. In this section you get zero points for meeting the minimum admission requirements and adders for more than the minimum. The bonuses in order of power are (min semesters/max total semesters/bonus per extra semester/total possible bonus): math 6/10/125/500 (note: stats and finite do not count), lab science 4/8/50/200, English 8/10/50/100, foreign language 4/8/25/100, visual performance 2/4/25/50, no bonus points for social sciences or electives. As with GPA, you can actually score higher than the maximum, but 750 is the most they will count.</p>
<p>Finally, work and ECs, worth 350 points. Work (hours per week/bonus): 0/0, 1-5/20, 6-10/40, 11-15/60, 16-20/80, 21+/100, add 50 points if work is major related. ECs (hours per week/bonus): 0/0, 1-5/30, 6-10/60, 11-15/90, 16-20/120, 21+/150, add 60 points for leadership role.</p>
<p>There you go. Good luck. </p>
<p>@roxy401 Awesome thank you very much, and do you know what the average MCA score was for the freshman profile of last year?</p>
<p>Now, that, I have no idea, I think for engineering you’ll need about 4700. I applied to Architectural engineering and I have a 4416.733, but that’s about all I know. :-/ But I’m excited to hear back</p>
<p>Has anyone emailed them in December? I emailed admissions on Dec 1st about something crucial on my application and I haven’t heard back. I’m scared I might get rejected early because of an accidental discrepancy. </p>
<p>People its happening…It’s just hitting me how real this is…!! </p>
<p>Remember to post your stats with your Acceptance/Deferred post!!! </p>
<p>Good luck, @will187651!</p>
<p>I will be praying for all of you. May God open the right doors for you and guide your path. Please pray for me as well. </p>
<p>@roxy401 what would it mean if someone does not, for example fulfill the total number of semesters of algebra required? Would that mean that you would be automatically denied? </p>
