Expected
Regular Decision
Dates marked announced come from the college itself, with the announcement linked. Dates marked expected rest on the evidence named right next to the date — that college's own release history or the timeline its admissions office publishes — and the label switches to announced only when the college says so.
Regular Decision
Regular Decision isn't announced yet — expect April 2027. Cal Poly publishes one promise and no earlier date: every applicant is notified of their admission status by April 1.
Where to check
Decisions post to the applicant portal, not your inbox — the email just says the portal updated. Check yours at connect.calpoly.edu.
Official timing straight from the school: Cal Poly admissions.
Cal Poly runs a single round: apply through Cal State Apply between October 1 and November 30, then wait. There's no early option and no published release day — only the promise that everyone hears by April 1.
