<p>This is the UC Transfer section, most of the information here refers specifically to the UC system. CSU and UC are different school systems, and have different rules and stuff.</p>
<p>From a quick google search, you’d be considered a transfer applicant at Cal Poly: [Transfer</a> Admissions for Undergraduates](<a href=“http://www.csupomona.edu/~admissions/undergraduate/transfer/index.shtml]Transfer”>http://www.csupomona.edu/~admissions/undergraduate/transfer/index.shtml)
As with the UC system, they want junior level transfers, so if you are considered a transfer (not a freshman) you’ll need to do a bit more school.</p>
<p>One option to consider would be going to a CC (particularly one in Calfornia) for your first two years, and then transferring after that. CCC students get priority for the UC system, and I assume priority for CSUs as well.</p>
<p>Or you could continue at your current school. You’ve only been there for one semester, surely it’s not too early to change your major. It also seems a bit early to decide you hate your school enough to transfer… you’ve only been there for a month or two, right? Sticking it out for a bit longer (or staying there while applying to transfer) might change your mind about the place.</p>
<p>You might also be able to find a school that’ll count you as a freshman, or one that accepts lower division transfers.</p>
