[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That's interesting because it has consistently ranked top 5 in most LAC rankings and currently is #3 on usn, right below Amherst. [/quote] FWIW since rankings are overrated, Pomona is a great school but has been ranked outside the top 5 by US News 9 times since 2000, including 7th 4 times, and 2 times since 2017. Amherst has been 1-2, usually 2nd, every year since 2000. More relevant though is the location and where alumni are. Pomona just doesn't have as many alumni out here. People "who know" know Pomona well but you don't name drop it in quite the same way out East. You never know about admission to any of these schools. I know someone well who was rejected by Pomona and ended up at Stanford. You control what you can and hope for a little luck![/quote]
