1. Student Intent to Register

I have to find out what this intent to register form is, and when I have to submit it by. My first choice is Cal Poly, which I plan to go to unless I'm accepted to UCSD and two of my good friends also decide to go there. YAY, HOT WHITE CHICKS AND SAND DUNES, HERE I COME!

It's so great to know you're going to a good college Oh yeah, and screw the two people who said I had little to no chance of getting in.

What does "conditionally admitted" mean?

It means I have to send in that Intent to Register paper or what-not and sign up for one of the campus tours to be fully admitted.

probably something like...if you keep your grades decent & graduate high school

 

So you're really not accepted yet then.
Good luck.

Congrats MrCodeDude :beer:

Unweighted B average.

Congrats, now you get to take 2 years of support courses and GE's which suck.

Meh, then that's even better.

How good is calpoly in comparsion to caltech?

 

[z0mb13]

u applied to other schools??

cal poly SLO is quite good, but not that good

UCLA perhaps?? or cal?

 

[nycxandy]

So if you get accepted to UCSD, you're going to UCSD. How does that make Cal Poly your first choice?

Caltech >>>>>>>> Calpoly

Sorry, Calpoly is a good school but the two just don't compare in terms of resources or prestige.

What about in comparison to Cal or UCLA?

caltech is still much harder to get into than CAL or ucla... but I think its smaller in terms of size (only technical majors IIRC)

I dont know, the OP seems pretty confident that CalPoly was a good school. Ive never heard of it so i figure it might have been some small engineering college

Look at it this way...at least, according to the rankings, I don't believe California Polytech falls into the top fifty universities in the United States. However, this is a more all-around system of ranking based on all programs. CalPoly may do better if you look at engineering programs, but it still won't hang with the big boys like MIT/CMU/CalTech/Berkeley.

oh ok that answered it, thanks

 

[MySoS]

CalTech is strong in Biological/Life Sciences, Physical Sciences, Mathematical Sciences, and Engineering, it is weak in Economics, and Political science.

cal and ucla much better than cal poly

cal poly is a state system, while cal and ucla are UC systems.

CAL vs UCLA depends on the major, but I am skewed towards CAL since I graduated from there

 

[PoPPeR]

caltech is in a category by itself.

CalPoly is NOT easy to get into, especially for prospective engineers. Congrats, and enjoy two years of stupid GE's with 200 person classes

There is no comparison.

I think UCLA Engineering > Cal engineering (marginally)?
