Hey, I'm really interested in applying to Cal Poly SLO and I want to make sure I have everything I need for the application. Could someone please provide me a list of requirements for the application? Like what documents I need to submit, essays, letters of recommendation, and that sort of stuff. Thanks a bunch!
Sure thing! Cal Poly SLO uses the California State University (CSU) application system. Here's a rundown of the application requirements for Cal Poly SLO:
1. CSU Application: You'll need to complete the online application, which can be found on the Cal State Apply website. Make sure to select Cal Poly SLO as one of your desired campuses.
2. High School Transcripts: You'll have to report your high school coursework and grades on the application. Cal Poly may request an official transcript from your high school later if you are offered admission, but you don't need to submit one during the application process.
3. Application Fee: You'll need to pay a $70 application fee when you submit your application to Cal Poly SLO. Fee waivers are available for eligible students upon request.
4. Educational Opportunity Program (EOP): If you're interested in applying for EOP, you'll need to complete an additional section on the Cal State Apply application. The EOP is designed to support first-generation, low-income, or educationally disadvantaged students through resources and services.
Make sure to double-check deadlines and any additional requirements for specific programs you're interested in. Best of luck with your application to Cal Poly SLO!
