Parents and Supporters

During the first-year in-person sessions, overnight accommodations are not included in the supporter reservation fee. However, Cal Poly's Office of Conference and Event Planning invites parents and supporters of incoming Cal Poly students to stay for a unique, on-campus experience during SLO Days. One or two-night stay options are available for all sessions in beautiful Poly Canyon Village. Click here to reserve your space now!
