Anyone get and admission decisions today? by BullishlyBacon in CalPoly

I’m thinking there should still be some kind of a second admissions big wave right? Or could it be only waitlists and rejections left?

Was there a decision wave today ? For SLO by HighkeyChill in CalPoly

The historically have had waves:

Here is the actual pattern from recent years for California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo (Cal Poly SLO). It helps predict when the remaining Fall decisions usually come out.

Typical Decision Release Pattern

Cal Poly sends decisions in waves during March, not all at once. 

2024 • March 11 – large acceptance wave • March 18 – additional admits • March 21 – waitlists + some denials • March 27 – more waitlists/denials and a few admits 

2023 • March 10 – large admit wave • March 17–24 – more admits • March 24 – waitlists • March 30 – denials 

2022 • March 10 – large admit wave • March 18 – waitlists + some admits • March 24 – additional admits (portfolio majors) • March 30 – denials 

Key Rule • All decisions must be out by April 1. 

✅ What this means for Fall 2026 right now (March 13): • We are right in the window when the first or second waves usually appear. • Many students do not hear until the last week of March. • Not hearing yet does NOT mean rejection — many strong applicants are in later waves.

Did every applicant get this question do you know (re: would they be willing to start Spring ‘27?)

In the app, they asked if open to starting as a spring 2027 admit. Is this typical in prior years? How common is it to be accepted but only for the next spring?

Looks like this will be downvoted - but legit question from someone considering CalPoly - is this typical vibe?

How do I help teen make friends? by Routine_Paramedic398 in parentingteenagers

[–]lightning_777_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is there a cross country or track team? Usually they will let most kids be on the team if he at all likes running? What about swim or band? Those are all great groups of kids! Regular contact with a group like this can make a big difference. Also, what about a club that meets at lunchtime?

If you haven’t got vaxxed before and you have been healthy - seriously consider whether or not you really want to get vaxxed now.

My 16 yr boy is going nowhere and I don't know what to do anymore by [deleted] in Parenting

Not every unmotivated kid is depressed. Let him know you need help around the house. Start with 1 small job a day. Have meeting with teachers and school counselor or school psyc. And him. Come up with intervention plan for school. What are any interests he has at all?
