<p>Hi everyone, Cal Poly SLO is my first choice and I have applied ED for the 5-year Bachelor of Architecture. Here are my stats:</p>

<p>Asian American
Female
No help needed financially
Attending #1 high school in Oregon, #20 in the nation - extremely rigorous
IB diploma candidate - 7 IB classes both jr. and sr. years
4 years of English, math, science, Spanish, and art
CSU GPA: 3.54
SAT CR+M 1310, W 730
Many leadership positions in an assortment of clubs
150+ hours of community service
Completed University of Oregon’s Summer Architecture Academy over summer - 8 college credits</p>

<p>I know it’s rough because Cal Poly doesn’t want a portfolio or any recommendations, meaning my acceptance will rely completely on my stats. Do I even have a chance?</p>

<p>I’m not in a position to offer an opinion on your chances, but here’s some data for you to consider:</p>

<p>Preliminary numbers show that for Freshmen entering Fall 2012, Cal Poly accepted 37.5% of College of Architecture and Environmental Design applicants (765/2,402 applied). The entering Freshmen had an average GPA of 3.89, ACT of 28, and SAT of 1265 (math and reading only).</p>

<p>If you haven’t taken the ACT, you should seriously consider it since Cal Poly prefers it to the SAT. </p>

<p>Some majors are harder to get into than others. I don’t know where Architecture stands; maybe someone knowledgeable can address that.</p>
