Record applicant volume for 2013

<p>Cal Poly received over 48000 applicants for Fall 2013. It is a record number that exceeded the previous year’s record of 45000.</p>

<p>I think this accounts for why they are so slow in getting back to everyone on their decisions.</p>

<p>Plus, CP typically accept 13000 students (frosh + transfer) so you can imagine their workload.</p>

<p>This year Frosh acceptance rate will probably fall below 30% for the first time.</p>

<p>This makes me a little nervous since I havent heard anything yet, so as of now I think my chances of getting accepted are pretty bleak :confused: I still have hope though!!</p>
