Pomona College Class of 2024 Applicants Thread

Hi! I noticed that no one has made a thread for this year’s admissions cycle yet. Let’s discuss/ask questions here! :slight_smile: Anyone who applied ED 1 ??

I did…trying to temper my feeble hopes.

Yeah same. I asked one of the admissions people if ED1 has a higher acceptance rate and she said no :frowning:

I applied ED1 as well…

I think they say that there isn’t a higher acceptance rate as their standard line, but statistically it doesn’t seem totally accurate, at least based on the common data set info. At least that’s what I tell myself…we’ll never know!

me!! now it’s just a waiting game :’) when do you guys think decisions will come out? i’m guessing friday 13th, but we’ll see!

On the website it says the 15th at 5 pm EST! It’s crazy to think that they will be released in less than a month.

It seems like in the past they’ve released decisions the Friday that comes on or before the 15th. I’m sure they’ll post as it gets closer.
Looks like only the 3 of us applied ED!! See you all in the fall, LOL!

does anyone know if Pomona requests Q1 grades?

i applied ed1! :slight_smile:

I ED’d as well! (but also committed for sports so hopefully all goes accordingly ahah)

I applied ED too! :slight_smile:

i’m so curious when decisions will come out! my friend called the admissions office to ask and they said by the end of this week, but when i called they said by the 15th. regardless, good luck to everyone though!

okay wait… by the end of THIS week?? Dang that’s really soon. When did she call?

she called at lunch today! i called like half an hour later and they said the 15th so idk what to believe

Guys I just messaged @pomonaadmissions on instagram asking if they might be releasing early, and they responded “Most likely this Friday actually”

HYPEEE but also hella nervous :’)))

My D applied ED. This Friday??? Do they send an email to let you know to check the portal?

ahhh friday! holy cow that is very exciting but also incredibly nerve wracking! also, my understanding is that they send you an email once decisions are released to tell you that your portal has been updated, and then you check your portal to see your results. good luck!!

i also messaged the pomona admissions instagram and they said they’re releasing decisions this Friday but aren’t sure what time yet. good luck to everyone else applying!

I applied ED 1! Super nervous… good luck everyone! :slight_smile:
