Placement
There are major job fairs every quarter, and almost everyone I know has graduated with multiple different job offers in their field of study. Many employers are interested specifically in Cal Poly students because of their hands-on experience.
I enjoyed my tour of the college when I visited, plus I loved the vibe of the college town. Everyone I met there was super friendly, and the college heavily uses the Learn By Doing/hands-on learning approach. My class sizes there would be much smaller than at other California schools, but I would still get affordable California resident tuition. I got full-ride scholarships to two other schools, including research grants, but the people and weather here were incredible, so I turned the scholarships down.
Placement
So good. I think 95% within my discipline have a job lined up before even graduating. Outside of my discipline, it is still good. Most people are offered a job before graduation and those that aren't being offered one soon after.
The location and the engineering program. I always wanted to peruse engineering so that was a priority, but I also wanted to be happy. Cal poly is such a happy campus with so much around it between hikes and the beach.
Placement
They provide many resources such as career fairs for you to get a job. Since I am going straight to law school after this, I have not needed to look for a job yet. But they do try to help to the best of their ability.
It provided the most money to me (scholarships, grants, and loans), CAL POLY SLO is also the best Cal State.
