<p>I want to strongly second the cpthouse post. Pomona is not the only school where you would be happy. Is it an amazing school? Yes. Does it have a below 20% acceptance rate? Yes. Please, please with your scores and GPA give yourself more options.</p>
<p>If you are female the women’s colleges would be wonderful options. Scripps, Smith, etc.</p>
<p>Try to figure out what it is about Pomona that you love, then look for other schools that can approximate these criteria. And definitely run the net price calcs at each one.</p>
<p>The automatic scholarship link is very helpful. But with your scores you might also look at top schools which are generous with financial aid. These schools tend to be need-based. Your EFC is high so the net price calcs will give you an idea what to expect.</p>
<p>If you can figure out what you like so much about Pomona, and can find an honors program somewhere, that is another option.</p>
<p>Best of luck!</p>
