Pomona College Class of 2025 Applicants Thread

Hey! They told me decisions do come out at 5 pm PDT. So it’s confirmed.

I’m so nervous, good luck everyone!

hey did you call them?
They have not posted anything on their socials or sent out emails so I was kinda skeptical.

It’s confirmed that it will be today at 5pm PST (insta story).

Does everyone still have the option to submit an update via the self-service tool?

Does anyone know the RD acceptance rate?

Wishing all much luck today. It is now as much a lottery as an indication of exceptionalism, as most applicants are among the finest students across the globe.

Your 100% right, it is a lottery. I don’t know how they pick from all the qualified students. My daughter is hoping they need students from Massachusetts.

Only the adcoms and perhaps a handful of other officials… I don’t think they even revealed how many applications they got this year like many other colleges did.

They usually write up some of the information after RD decisions.

For example, this is from last year: Pomona College Announces New Class of 2024 | Pomona College in Claremont, California - Pomona College

They posted one about the class of 2025 today!

Oh no! They did not mention transfer students, unlike last year. I am honestly worried as I applied as a transfer.

Transfer decisions will be coming out April 1 according to their insta post (@pomonacollege)

My son was waitlisted. It was his top choice. How hopeful should one be on waitlist?

Got in!!! So excited. It’s my dream school. To those who didn’t get the decision they were hoping for, remember that admissions is holistic and unpredictable. You are still amazing and talented and will do great things :slight_smile:
