That is something you will probably have to discuss with Cal Poly. I would go talk to the people on the 2nd floor of the administration building (building 1, I believe it is. It is the one in the front, across from the red brick dorms and by the mustang statue). They should be able to tell you where to go from there. Professors and such can be much more understanding that you might think, so if you go to them and sincerely explain your situation they might make an exception. If they revoked you Fall admission though, you are probably going to have to do some explaining about your grades and some convincing to get a pardon to continue at Cal Poly while making up classes at Cuesta. There are a lot of other people who wanted into Cal Poly this year, so they won't have any trouble filling your spot... not to sound mean, it is just the truth. P.S. There is a loophole, but it is probably too late. For people who don't get accepted normally, they can take summer school and then automatically enroll for fall classes. Some years they do not allow this; however, due to over enrollment or high numbers of applicants. I know summer classes already started, but there may be a second set of summer classes. Worth checking into. If all else fails, you can just do Cuesta for 2 years, get a good gpa and then transfer to Cal Poly. They almost always take Cuesta transfers, seeing as how it is local.
