<p>So I recently decided that, hey, maybe it would be a good idea to apply to Pomona, because, you know, it's a super awesome school. Just looked at their website though, and it turns out they "strongly recommend" interviews for all applicants... but the deadline for an alumni interview has passed. My bad. Should I bother applying? </p>
<p>do you live in southern california?</p>
<p>My brother (living in SoCal) never did an interview and ended up getting in… so you should definitely apply, you never know what you might get out of it. :)</p>
<p>yes, I agree. If you like the school, go for it! An interview is only one of the many factors of an application.</p>
<p>Thanks guys. And no, I live in Colorado. </p>
