<p>So I checked mycalpoly today and saw this:</p>
<p>“You have been placed on the waitlist at Cal Poly for Fall. You will be receiving a letter with more information very shortly.”</p>
<p>I am a transfer applicant, how bad is this? Anything I can do to increase my chances of being accepted off of the waitlist?</p>
<p>not bad at all. One of my friends got that last year for Pomona (another competitive school), and they called her up in the summer. Too bad she wasn’t ready for the call. So make sure you still prepare.</p>
<p>Interesting. I didn’t even know this school did this waitlist thing. I plan to get a job straight out of college (Mechanical Engineering major), so I think this is a good school for me. It’s one of my top choices. This suspense is the worst.</p>
