Cal Poly is a great university. But you do need to know what you want to study prior to coming and you have to be socially confident in order to make a solid group of friends.

Cal Poly engineering, architecture, agriculture, and business are all outstanding colleges. If you are interested in any of these disciplines, Cal Poly should definitely on your college list. Be aware that our university is NOT for slackers. If you slack or party too hard, you will get kicked out.

The campus is absolutely brilliant located at one of the best place in California. With pristine nature, open country, and absolutely breathtaking beaches nearby, you really can't ask for more in terms of environment.Bottom-line, I love Cal Poly. And I am so glad I came here.
Campus Aesthetics: A, Collaboration/Competitive: B

unless you're going there for engineering, don't bother. the town of san luis obispo is full of assholes, both students and residents. don't expect to not be harassed by police. i don't do either but skateboarding on campus can land you a $300 ticket and you can be slapped with a $600 noise violation ticket if you have 2 complaints within a few months. Also, more than 20 people within the same household can cost you hundreds of dollars as well. i know it sounds like im a bitter person who has been hit with these fines, but i havn't. i'm only demonstrating what kind of town you'll be living in and the kind of people you'll be living with. In short, SLO is a very pretentious town,but it does have some cool people and a decent school if you go there for the right major.

A pretentious university that has a large number of pompous and arrogant people as students and faculty. It pretends to be a UC, but fails at it. Tjey should change its name to Cal State SLO.
