Selection to all majors is competitive. Cal Poly continues to have more qualified applicants than available new student spaces. All students must declare a major when submitting their application. Cal Poly comprehensively reviews all applications as we look for students who have strong academic records and are active in and outside the classroom. Beyond the basic qualifications for the California State University, Cal Poly considers other factors for admission and does so in an objective format. In fact, it is impossible to predict a candidate's chances of admission by looking at the academic record alone. That is why when we review your application, we consider:
- Your intended program of study (the major to which you are applying)
- Completion of CSU and Cal Poly program required coursework with a grade of C or better
- General Education and IGETC completion
- Academic performance in your classes (GPA)
- Your extracurricular activities and work experience
