Lot of haters here of Pomona all of a sudden. Sorry your kid didn't get in.
Yes, apparently unhinged PP missed the part about the admit rate for women at Pomona being 6% when they were concocting their narrative about the school having trouble attracting female applicants.
Reports of rapes are not something Pomona is concerned about. It’s a good thing. Only at Pomona.
“Seeing higher rates of reports is not necessarily something that we’re super concerned about, because in many ways that can actually be a good thing...”

Read the article. The quote is about Pitzer.

Congratulation on such a dumb post. Pomona has a much higher percentage of students of color, first-generation, and Questbridge students than almost any other LAC, coupled with an admission rate under 8%.

Real loons, weirdos? You mean Washington Post for reporting an inconvenient truth? You can find the info easily if you know how to google. It’s all open source info.

My kid went to Bowdoin so it was a similar scenario. My immigrant relatives actually couldn't believe my bright kid was going to go to this school they had never heard of - until they started asking the other senior partners and coworkers. My kid wanted a small to medium school, with a town, a good campus and strong academics. Bowdoin was all that. There were things that my kid didn't like about their time there but academics were strong and there are lifelong friends. Kid ended up going to an ivy grad school and people recognize that name just fine.
Swarthmore same thing.
So question. Kid is also WL at Cornell. If he gets in there, go directly to ivy?
