Transfer applicants

<p>Have any transfer applicants gotten the word? A friend has applied as a transfer student into Mech Eng, 3.8+ gpa from a 4 year school out of state.
thanks</p>

<p>I'm a transfer to Architecture. No word yet. I'll post if I get news, though.</p>

<p>Have any transfers heard yet???</p>

<p>I'm a transfer to architecture. Got rejected last night.</p>

<p>i got accepted into Mech Engineering, but i'm in the state of CA.</p>

<p>I just got rejected with a 3.9 gpa. I'm a community college student, and my major was business administation with a concentration in accounting. Needless to say, I'm shocked. Oh well..</p>

<p>How many of the required transferable courses for accounting did you finish? Like accounting classes, math, and GE's. FOr transfers, they don't concentrate too much on GPA.</p>

<p>zer0c123, what were your stats and what type of school are you coming from? Thanks.</p>

<p>two accounting courses, two calculus courses, two econ courses, igetc finished by the end of the spring. I think I did everything that was required and "desired." Even though Cal Poly isn't my first choice, I'll probably call them up and ask why I was rejected.</p>

<p>I'm asking because my friend applied for mechanical engineering. She completed all of the required classes and had a 3.8 gpa. We're puzzled.</p>

<p>I just called cal poly, but they would not want to give me a reason why I was rejected. I have a 3.5gpa with all classes done and extra ones relating to my architecture major. I am still puzzled why I was rejected.</p>

<p>Yea it doesn't make much sense. People keep telling me to call and ask but I already know thousands of students are also calling and that they won't give me a reason. </p>

<p>I got rejected on Friday. I have a 3.9gpa and all of my classes done, so I really don't know how they come up with who to accept.</p>

<p>I would understand if they had a personal statement. I'm suprised you didn't get in ilikespicyfood. I volunteered and worked about 20-30hours per week also. oh well...my only chance left is berk.</p>

<p>my gpa is 3.14 and i'm transferring from a community college in california.</p>

<p>Forget what i said about completing all the required classes. I was talking with a bunch of the other classmates that got accepted/rejected. The majority of the ones that got in had less than 3.5 gpa, and some were missing classes.. The lowest i heard was 2.90 i think. </p>

<p>Also a few were admitted to alternate majors, which they didn't really like.</p>

<p>I remember talking to one of engineering teachers and she said that "Caly poly is weird... I see students get in and i don't even know how they get in."</p>

<p>Last semester one of instructors showed me a cheat sheet of classes that cal poly uses as part of their selection into engineering. It was mostly a list of required and recommended classes, and the amount of points they are worth and points deducted if missing.
It also showed some GE classes that were worth extra points.</p>

<p>We don't really know if SLO still uses it, because it was given to my instructor a long time ago.</p>

<p>I was thinking, I probably know why we didn't or I didn't get in. I had 3 major related classes that I was finishing in fall 05 and a physics class during summer 05 when I submitted my application during Nov 05. SLO requires that we finish all the classes in spring 05.</p>
