Are students eligible for special admission consideration because of a disability?
A. No. As an oversubscribed campus, Cal Poly has adopted a faculty-mandated Multi-Criteria Admission (MCA) practice as its formal strategy for selecting students for admission. The MCA is a multi-faceted scheme that combines academic factors with other objective values to comprehensively review all applicants for selection. The application process does not include a personal essay or letters of recommendation; it is a purely objective process. Cal Poly acknowledges that as a competitive campus for admission, students may file appeals seeking special review.
