<p>I’m really hoping I get in for Fall 2010 :)</p>

<p>This forum is for Cal Poly Pomona right? not reg pomona college</p>

82

<p>Sorry, l4l - this forum is for Pomona College, not Cal Poly Pomona.</p>

83

<p>just curious, what’s the average GPA? is there a lot of grade inflation?</p>

84

<p>which are the best majors there？</p>

85

<p>How is Composition at Pomona? Does it involve taking classes at Mudd and others?..and can one double major in composition and computer science? or would one have to go to Harvey Mudd to do that?</p>

86

<p>I don’t know about the music side, but Pomona has its own CS department and major/minor program, so the CS part of a double major you could certainly do entirely at Pomona (although I’m not sure why you would want to).</p>

87

<p>I think there is one humanities professor at Mudd who does music, but Scripps, Mudd, CMC, and Pitzer are all part of a joint music program. Other than Pomona, Scripps is the only Claremont college with a strong music program (in addition to the joint program). Though I don’t think any degree “requires” taking classes at another college, it gives a lot more variety and opportunities and not taking advantage of it would be a waste. Pomona and Mudd are the only ones with a CS major.</p>

88

<p>Pamona sounds like a fantastic school…anyone know how the Claremont College drama department is? I’m really interested in that and want to know if it’s very strong.</p>

<p>Hi, dunkbee. Just for the record, it’s POmona. :o)</p>

<p>You will find out a lot if you do a search for Claremont Colleges theatre. Here’s a start:</p>

<p>Haha, thanks for the spelling tips as well as the link!</p>

91

<p>hey, if by any chance there’s anyone who’s majored in linguistics&cognitive science at Pomona, could you tell me how in depth you go into theoretical linguistics?</p>

92

<p>Haha nice list OP!</p>

93

<p>We play Humans vs. Zombies like a boss.</p>

95

<p>But who wants to be known as a stagehand? “Go mighty stagehands!” just doesn’t intimidate.</p>

96

<p>Califdad, the Pomona mascot is sageHEN. It might seem a bit wimpy, but Cecil the Sagehen is pretty cool.</p>

97

<p>Just curious, are the psych programs at pomona or really any of the claremont five great? or are they kinda looked down on as a BS major?</p>

98

<p>The psych programs at Pomona and CMC are both excellent/very good. Not sure about Scripps and Pitzer. I think only Mudders would view it as a BS major, for obvious reasons.</p>

99

<p>So, are they BA majors? Cause that’s what I want to do.</p>
