Cal Poly Pomona Bronco Advising Center

The priority filing period for the 2023-24 FAFSA and CA Dream Act applications has officially opened! If you want to be considered for financial aid at CPP in 2023-24, you’ll need to fill out one of the applications: the deadline is March 2, 2023. Both applications require 2021 tax information (yours and/or your parent’s) and CPP’s school code (001144). Head to studentaid.gov for the FAFSA or dream.csac.ca.gov for the CA Dream Act app.

Add/Drop Period for Fall 2022 will start Monday, August 15 at 8 a.m. Here's what you need to know:

*️⃣Add/Drop Period is an opportunity for you to add to your schedule or drop courses without receiving Ws. For Fall 2022, it begins August 15 at 8 a.m. and ends September 8 at 11:59 p.m.

*️⃣You'll be able to enroll in up to 18 units (a bump up from general registration's 16-unit limit), and waitlist a max of 10 units. Remember that waitlisted units count toward your limit.

*️⃣Before dropping any courses, review the Enrollment Requirements for Financial Aid page (link in bio) so you are aware of how the changes might impact your financial aid for the term.

*️⃣Once Add/Drop ends, you will not be able to add classes. You'll be able to drop classes, but you'll receive Ws on your transcript. Visit Student Success Central's Academic Calendar for withdrawal period dates.

*️⃣The waitlists are running regularly, so keep tabs on your Class Schedule. You can view your waitlist position in the list view of your Class Schedule. Continue to check your CPP email regularly during these next few weeks, and as always DM us if you have questions.

*️⃣If you need help, we’ll be available in-person (Student Services Building, first floor, blue counter) and our Zoom drop-in queue will be open. Head to www.cpp.edu/bac for the link.

In light of the recent wave of COVID-19 infections, CPP will move to temporary remote instruction for the first three weeks of the spring semester, which begins Jan. 22.

This temporary delay allows the university to significantly decrease campus density during what is expected to be the crest of the surge caused by the Omicron variant. Barring any further direction by the Los Angeles County Department of Public Health, approved in-person classes will proceed starting Feb.12.
