An AMAZING school. With a
14.7% acceptance rate and 2240 median SAT score,
Pomona College is the most selective liberal arts college in the United States.
Unlike other
top schools, however, Pomona offers students a great quality of life to go along with the rigorous academics. Pomona College is located in sunny Southern California - a short car ride away from surfing at the beach, skiing at at the mountains, and shopping in LA. And while Pomona students enjoy small, discussion based class sizes characteristic of a small liberal arts college, the 5-College Consortium offers students the academic and social resources of a large university. A testament to the general happiness of the student body, Pomona has the highest freshman retention rate of any liberal arts college in the country (according to USNWR).
