@r77r77, thanks for asking. We postponed the date by a week because Sonoma State was so late in notifying him. However, we just had a long talk at dinner tonight and CP is sitting at #1. I’d be mildly surprised if he chose otherwise. We just want him to choose early enough to be able to get a chance at good housing and orientation dates. I think he’s a future Mustang.
He chose Cal Poly. Too good to pass up. I won’t re-post all of the other reasoning that I went through earlier in the thread. Long story short, he felt like he “fit” there and it was a financially sound decision.
@Tannison My son chose Calpoly over UCLA and Santa Clara University for a Computer Science major. The “Learn by doing” approach and the campus vibe is what attracted him. So far he loves it! Best of luck to you and your son!
