**General Comments: ** Super disappointed and cried all night when I found out but there’s nothing I can really do. Have fun to everyone who got accepted and to the people who were rejected, you guys are all capable students. You wouldn’t have applied if you weren’t great students. Unfortunately, Pomona has to keep their class sizes small so they cannot accept every single exceptional student:(
