@DyingInside SAME!! I plan to double major in PPE and Environmental Analysis.
Good luck everyone! There is less than twenty-four hours until we know… no matter what, we should be proud. Congratulations, and let’s all pray for each other. Sagehens forever
@NebbyBag Thank you so much for your kind words (and for reading that ungodly long post, lol)! I am so ecstatic it helped you and your friend in some way! 
I am thinking about PPE, too. Also potentially Romance Languages and Literatures or the IR major.
I, among some of us, have always said I’d rather find out a rejection than endlessly waiting. However, as decisions approach, I suddenly don’t want the waiting to stop anymore. At least during the waiting period, there can be speculations, over-analyzing, and hope. However, there will no longer be room for idealistic hope and imaginations as the result comes in.
I guess ignorance is bliss sometimes.
How nervous are you guys? All my friends have decisions next week so I am relying on you to commiserate with me.
I am terrified. I have one friend who also finds out tomorrow (Columbia ED), and it’s so so scary. I’m realizing how ill-prepared I am for rejection. I don’t want to lose whatever sliver of hope I have.
I was so nervous today that I could legit feel my blood vessels in my arms. my heart beated so fast that i could feel it… LOL
and like i said in an earlier post… my stomach began to hurt like crazy and I’m UNABLE to digest food rn. i didn’t think i’d be this nervous. my body’s reacting weirdly 
honestly, i’d be better off with a rejection than a defferal; if i get deferred, i probably won’t be able to focus on my other apps… i’d be thinking about pomona all that time xD but then, if I end up getting in after the deferral… IDK. i’m so excited and nervous at the same time, not sure if i can sleep tonight
Thanks for sharing guys! (haha, why do I feel like this is an AA meeting?) I am feeling the adrenaline rush too (and the decision is still 17 hours away) but do please make sure you eat a little bit! Food is so essential for your body (and my chosen way to deal with any emotions, haha).
For me, I seem calm and collected on the surface, even with an unassuming smile but I feel like there is a tiny part inside of me that is in the " panicked monkey " mode. My attempt at any meaningful progress in my HW has devolved into alternating between checking this thread and checking Pomona’s various social media (its YouTube channel just posted a great video, btw).
AHAHAHAHA, this day is finally coming!
Guys, you’re making it worse! Don’t look at Pomona, go look at your #2, it’ll make you feel much better! Make a list of all the bad things about Pomona: http://talk.qa.collegeconfidential.com/pomona-college/1985261-some-less-satisfying-aspects-of-attending-pomona-college.html#latest
Great read. Read it now, and read it if you get rejected. It’ll make you handle it better. But I wish you guys all the luck in the world! I hope we can all one day look back at this thread and smile!
Gosh these decisions come out today and my first marking period grades still haven’t been downloaded. I don’t think that’s a good sign…
Ohh edit : PT is 2 hours behind me, so it’s 10:30 there. Praying it gets downloaded by like 12
Omg you guys! So dramatic xD
@1wanttogotoCMU I wouldn’t worry too much about it! If they never sent a personal request email to your counselor, it probably means they are not that desperate to see your Q1 grades. Decisions are probably finalized already Take a deep breath!
if it comes out 5 PM PT, we have 16 more hours to go. woohoo!!! how am I gonna be able to concentrate in class today?!
Now what I’m wondering is whether it will come out exactly at five or not… we shall see soon enough I guess. School today is going to be pointless
Hopefully, today is the day. Can’t wait till next week…
@Quiches , didn’t your counselor get an email saying that decisions are out this friday? @vsiddapu I’m pretty sure it’s today… if not, I’m gonna cry :((
are you guys still unable to access this portal?? https://admissions.pomona.edu/portal/destination
last year they didn’t plan it right and a few hours before the release some students were able to access the portal and figured out if they were accepted or not.
Hey, guys. Good luck for today! I’m probably going to be applying to ponoma rd. How is pomona for wall street jobs? Is a target school?
@nillupa Where did you apply ED?
@jackattackk i can’t access it i don’t think they’ll make the same mistake as they did last year.
I’m worried… Shouldn’t we be getting an email confirming that today’s the day?
Does someone want to tweet to Joel A Hart and ask if today is the day? He has responded to people who have done it in the past
