<p>Hi, so what excatly excites you about Pomona? Why did you choose to apply?</p>
<p>My reasons are:
-it's out of state (I can experience new things)
-it's smaller (I can have a chance to get to know everyone. including teachers! :))
-It has a great location (skiing in the morning....going to the beach in the evening.... Not to mention that LA is right there....)
-I feel that I will be academically challeneged by people who will guide me and wish the very best of luck in whatever I do.</p>
<p>I would say the most attractive thing to me when I visited was the atmosphere and people. Just on a campus tour, I felt like Pomona was definitely a place where I could see myself. Also, the students and staff were amazing! Everyone I encountered was super happy, friendly, and helpful and seemed genuinely thrilled to be there.</p>
<p>Other reasons:
-great academics in all subject areas
-awesome location and weather
-CC consortium
-really good food!
-research, internship, and work-study opportunities
-palm trees!!!
-small class sizes
-sage hens are the coolest birds eva! :)</p>
<p>I can’t wait to find out if I got in!!!
Good luck everyone!</p>
<p>My top reason is the same as KYST17’s: the people. But I agree that everything about Pomona is practically perfect. :)</p>
