Hey, I'm starting to work on my college applications and I'm wondering about the application fee for Cal Poly San Luis Obispo. Does anyone know how much it is? Also, is there any chance of getting a waiver if I can't afford it?
The application fee for Cal Poly San Luis Obispo is currently $70. If you're facing financial constraints and are worried about affording the application fee, you may be eligible for a fee waiver. When you complete the Cal State Apply application, there's a section where you can indicate whether you'd like to request a fee waiver. The application will ask for some financial information to determine your eligibility, like your household income and family size.
If you are eligible for a fee waiver, Cal State Apply will automatically grant it, and you won't need to pay the fee for up to four Cal State campuses (including Cal Poly SLO) when you submit your application. Keep in mind that if you apply to more than four campuses, you will have to pay the application fee for each additional campus.
It's always a good idea to communicate with the financial aid office at Cal Poly SLO if you have any concerns or face any difficulties regarding application fees or other financial matters. Good luck with your application!
