Blah.. My 3.9GPA means nothing.. all my outside activities mean nothing. This sucks.. whats worse is a friend of mine got into there with a 3.1GPA, less activities, lower SAT score.. same major.

I am sorry to hear that! So why then did you get rejected? Did you have to write an essay about yourself on the app?

They didn't ask for an essay..

Outside Activities does not mean posting on At 9 hours per day.

I'm pretty sure I didn't do anything wrong. I'm still awaiting replies from UCI and UCLA.. already accepted by UCR (Last choice..) . Letter from SLO said they'd forward the application to Pomona..

And now Pomona will send you 9,000 letters asking you to go there. Same thing happened to me. I'm at Sacramento State, now.

Trust me man, there are going to be a lot larger hardships than not being able to go to the college that you wanted to go to......

I got rejected to Cal Poly SLO too. Ended up going to UC Davis and majoring in Computer Engineering. Now I'm going to grad school at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign (consistently ranked #5 in ECE). Cal Poly can kiss my ass.
