[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why would there be a difference? They share a lot in common and the differences are pretty tiny. If you want the small New England feel, go to Amherst. If you want California or a proper consortium, go to Pomona. Most other differences are speculative or natural to the small differences in student interest. [/quote] Agree with this PP completely. It will be a very similar applicant pool academically and politically. Some will get into Amherst vs Pomona due to closer feeder HS relationships with each. Some will prefer to be in CA vs MA. Amherst slightly more athletes, Pomona warmer weather. Pomona has a better consortium but weaker name recognition in the east coast but strong in west coast. Both full of kids that could have done very well at Brown or Yale. [/quote] About the same name recognition overall. No one knows these schools except for the hiring managers and grad schools. I wouldn’t use that as a factor at all.[/quote]
