<p>I am proud, but mostly happy that he can be around others who love to learn. BTW–I think that Pomona does consider the fact that your son attends a “super overachieving” HS, so perhaps that can be brought to their attention. </p>
<p>It was amazing to hear the admissions counselor addressing the class of 2013 in August when he said, “Worrying about grades is all behind you now…you are just here to learn.” Whew! </p>
<p>Good luck to you and your son!</p>
<p>I’m from Canada and China.</p>
<p>I like music -</p>
<p>Pomona, too. But I haven’t much of a chance.</p>
<p>I had my Alumni interview a couple days ago, and I’m really excited.
Pomona is definitely my first choice. Its a bit of a reach, but, that’s how its supposed to work, right? I’m a white male from Ohio. Pomona needs cute accents, right?</p>
<p>Other schools: Stanford (1st tie), Carleton (2nd), Oberlin, USC, and UCBerkeley.</p>
<p>Hey everyone! I’m from Minnesota. Pomona is definitely one of my top choices (and not just because of the weather).</p>
<p>Good luck!</p>
<p>First choice! I feel pretty rotten for not applying ED2, but oh well. Hopefully my supplement essay (the best one I’ve ever written, I think) will show just how much I want to be there! Have any other RD applicants not received an application confirmation yet? I was sent an email about five days after submitting my full common app and supplement, but it only acknowledged receipt of my preliminary app (which I had sent weeks earlier).</p>
<p>And by the way, I submitted a music recording (viola) and athletic supplement (xc/track). Any other runners?</p>
<p>Bump. Come on, you guys. I refuse to allow Pomona to be the LAC which hasn’t been posted to in the longest amount of time. :]</p>
<p>So who’s excited? I really want to know if I got in. I got into Swat this past weekend, and the only other school I think I would consider is Pomona, so I’m pretty anxious. (Unless I magically get into Yale, but. Well.)</p>
<p>Anyhow. I’m from Texas, a prospective linguistics major. Somebody talk!</p>
<p>I am super excited too!</p>
<p>I got deferred from Early Decision II and Pomona is definitely still my first choice!</p>
<p>Hopefully the big envelope will grace my mailbox in two weeks! </p>
<p>I am a prospective Biochemistry/Biology major - premed route!</p>
<p>^ don’t be too surprised if you hear from Pomona in less than two weeks :)</p>
<p>Really? How soon?</p>
<p>I heard last year lots of people got them around the 28th or so. laksdjf I almost wish we had a specific date so I won’t be checking the mail every day!</p>
<p>^haha seriously! i totally think i’m going to be the kid camping out in front of the mailbox next week -_-</p>
<p>the website says april 5th.</p>
<p>admissions letters starting coming in last year on March 27th. I got my letter on the 28th :)</p>
<p>I am so nervous/ excited! Pomona is my first choice. Good luck to everybody!</p>
<p>getting into pomona is a magical, magical day :).</p>
<p>Possibly 10 more days!</p>
<p>I think I speak for everyone when I say…</p>
<p>AHHHH!!!</p>
<p>^ Haha, seriously!</p>
<p>What, a little over a week now? :D</p>
<p>Most likely, you’ll know by April 5. As to when they’ll actually get mailed . . . ?</p>
<p>Good luck, all!</p>
<p>@coin, I’m also a prospective linguistics major! And, like you, I was just accepted to another LAC (Amherst), but I’m still madly in love with Pomona. Fingers crossed!</p>
