Student Contract of Responsibilities for Transfers--Fall 2009


The Educational Opportunity Program (EOP) at Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo is committed to our partnership with you so that your educational experience will be a successful one.  To achieve this goal, there are several commitments we will make with you.  Please read this contract, check “I accept” and submit online by May 1, 2009.  We look forward to working with you!

1.

Send your updated transcripts to Cal Poly Admissions (NOT EOP) to verify your completion of GE requirements in English and math.  If you have already sent them, do not send again.   Refer to your Cal Poly Welcome Information at http://www.ess.calpoly.edu/_admiss/undergrad/newly_admitted.html and/or the Cal Poly Catalog for English Placement Test (EPT) and Entry Level Math (ELM) exemptions for most transfer students.  You must take these exams in May at any CSU campus if you are not exempt.

    If you still have to complete any of the courses included in these programs, workshops will be built into your fall schedule when Cal Poly provides it to you.
