Admissions Decisions

<p>So apparently decisions are coming out now. My mom just got mine in the mail today, but I live in San Diego so it might take other people a little while.
But since most colleges have a decision thread, we should start one.</p>

<p>Waitlisted
Sat: 1510
Sat2s: 780/770/770
Gpa:4.1
great essays, good teacher recs
Tons of leadership in lots of ECs</p>

<p>Anyone know how many people are on the waitlist and how many they take on average?</p>

<p>I got waitlisted too. </p>

<p>SAT: 1580
SAT2's: 790, 740,730
GPA: 4.3
decent essays, great teacher recommendations
Good ECs with some leadership.</p>

<p>Last year only 5 got off the waitlist and that was the first year in awhile they used the waitlist. My D has lower scores then both of you so I do not expect good things . She did get into pepperdine today. She should get her letter Mon. Good luck to both of you!</p>

<p>izlar, are you in SoCal also?</p>

<p>yeah, I live in LA</p>

<p>My daughter got waitlisted too.</p>

<p>SATs: 1520
SAT 2s: 800, 710, 700
GPA: 3.97 unweighted
Recs: great
ECS:good</p>

<p>Wow...most of you guys have similar stats as mine so I feel kind of bad saying this, but...accepted!</p>

<p>SATs: 1540
SAT 2s: 750, 750, 800
GPA: 4.0 UW
Recs: good
Essays: good (or at least I think so...)
ECS: good (newspaper editor, Youth group leader)</p>

<p>oooooooh crap? are you kidding me? im going to kill myself on monday if i dont get a letter....oh im afraid of that rejection/waitlist sooooo much. especially because everyone waitlisted has better stats that i do... :( :( :(</p>

<p>Don't panic yet, Kosuke. Stats don't show the intangibles. Some of the students posting above may not have thought of Pomona as their first choice school. Colleges have ways of divining these things.</p>

<p>I was waitlisted too...</p>

<p>SAT: 1470
SAT 2: 730,710,700
GPA: 4.2
Good consistency with similar debate-related EC's (leadership/awards in all)
Good recs i think, but i've written better essays than the ones i sent to Pomona. However i felt my interview was the best i had for any school</p>

<p>In all honesty, a spot on the waiting list was a step up from the rejection i expected</p>

<p>Congratulations to all who were accepted! It is an awesome school!</p>

<p>I live in PA, when were your decision letters postmarked?</p>

<p>I live in PA, when were your decision letters postmarked?</p>

<p>sorry for the double post</p>

<p>I live in Southern California, but the mail was priority mailed with postmark on March 25, 2005.</p>

<p>hey so are you guys regular decision ppl? sorry i'm confused; i thought the notification date was april 10th...</p>

<p>I am definitely RD. I was surprised too; I thought they noticed later, but heck, I'm not complaining :)</p>

<p>yeah, I was surprised too. Well, I live in SoCal, so maybe that's why we got it so soon.</p>

<p>I was accepted. I have very similar stats to all of you guys, but I'm in the Midwest and my parents didn't go to college...I know that was probably the deciding factor.</p>

<p>Congrats on your acceptances......just curious, did they give you financial aid info with your letter?</p>

<p>yes, my son got fa info with his acceptance.</p>
