Frequently Asked Questions 

How can I get a parking permit? 

• Short-term and time-limited parking permits may be purchased through the Parking Portal. Commuter students must purchase long-term parking permits through the waitlist. Permits are randomized, awarded through a lottery system, and must be purchased within three (3) days of lottery award email notice. For more information on parking permits, please refer here or email Parking & Transportation Services at parking@calpoly.edu.  

Can I still get a parking permit after the waitlist closes? 

• Yes, students with dependents may still purchase long-term parking permits after the waitlist closes. Please send your EMPLID and full name to studentswithdependents@calpoly.edu so that we may reach out to Parking and Transportation Services on your behalf. 

I am pregnant and would like to take one to two quarters off. Can I keep my status as a student, scholarships, etc.?

• You may be eligible to take 1-2 quarters of Informal Time Off while maintaining your active student status. To qualify for Informal Time Off, you must have been enrolled for at least one term at Cal Poly and received either a letter grade or a “W” in one of more courses. You may extend your time away by initiating a formal Leave of Absence for up to 1 year at a time (with a maximum of 2 years). Your college’s Retention Specialist is here to support you in navigating your options and connecting you to campus resources. 

  As you plan to take time away from Cal Poly, it is important that you connect with the Financial Aid Office to ensure that your financial aid/scholarships/grants, etc. are not impacted. If you are part of any student programs (Cal Poly Scholars, EOP, Trio, Honors, Athletics, etc.), you may need to inform the program advisor/coordinator about your plans to take time away. 

How can I use Title IX to ensure that my pregnancy or family responsibilities do not interfere with my education?

• Title IX requires professors and administrators treat pregnancy, childbirth and related conditions in the same manner and under the same policies as any other temporary disability. The university can require a pregnant student to provide a doctor’s note to continue in an education program or activity only if the same requirement is imposed on all other students with disabilities. Pregnant students must be provided the same accommodations and support services available to other students with similar medical needs. Your professors or administrators should not tell you that you have to withdrawal from your courses or change your educational plans due to your pregnancy. If you have a concern regarding your status as a pregnant or parenting student at Cal Poly, please contact Maren Hufton, Director of the Civil Right & Compliance Office. Maren may be contacted at 805-756-6770 or crco@calpoly.edu.

Do my professors have to excuse my absences due to pregnancy, childbirth or abortion?

• Absences due to pregnancy, childbirth or related medical conditions must be excused and cannot be treated or penalized like unexcused absences. Your professors must provide you a leave of absence for as long as it is deemed necessary by your medical doctor. At the end of your leave, you must be reinstated to the status you held prior to your leave. After returning from an excused absence, your professors must allow a reasonable amount of time to make up missed assignments and tests. The makeup assignments and tests must be reasonably equivalent to those missed but need not be identical. If a professor provides specific “points” or other advantages to students based on class attendance, you must be given the opportunity to earn back the credit from classes missed due to pregnancy. Under Title IX, pregnant students are entitled to the same benefits offered to students with other medical conditions, illness or injury.

What if my professors claim their absence/makeup policy applies regardless of any medical condition?

• While your professor may have a strict attendance policy, the university is bound by federal civil rights law. Title IX requires the university ensure that all faculty and staff comply with the law and do not discriminate against pregnant and parenting students. An individual professor’s policy cannot break the law. Please email the Civil Right & Compliance Office at crco@calpoly.edu if you have questions about your professor’s attendance policy as it relates to your pregnancy or parental responsibilities.

If my program requires internships, career rotations or other off-campus elements, can I be excluded from participation?

• No, your program must allow you to continue participating in all elements of your program. If your department provides “learn by doing” opportunities, you cannot be excluded based on your pregnancy. Your professor cannot require a doctor’s note for continued participation unless your professor requires one for all students who have a medical condition that requires treatment by a doctor. If they do ask for a note, they cannot second-guess your doctor’s decision.

What if classmates or professors have made offensive comments to me about my pregnancy?

• Title IX requires the university prevent and address sex-based harassment, including harassment based on pregnancy. If you experience this sort of treatment, you should seek help immediately. The law prohibits anyone from retaliating against you for filing a complaint or raising a concern. The university’s complaint process can be found on the Title IX website.

Priority Registration

How can I gain Special Exception status or priority registration?

• Students with dependents interested in receiving Special Exception Registration must complete and submit the Special Exception Form to be considered for priority registration.

Do I have to submit the Special Exception Form every quarter to be considered for priority registration? 

• No, special exception status will rollover from quarter to quarter.  

Can I receive priority registration in summer? 

• Students with dependents do not have summer exceptions. Students with dependents special exception status is reserved for the regular academic year – fall through spring quarters. Although students with dependents do not receive summer exceptions, students have reported that registering for summer classes is generally not an issue.
