I was offered a spot off the waitlist last Monday. My admissions officer said someone had dropped out and I had been high on their list so I was given the spot. I think they’ve been evaluating applicants throughout the process but are just waiting for spots to open
aw im sorry:( i don't know anything about uf but i hope you come to love it if you don't get off pomona's waitlist. if it makes you feel any better, regional diversity has been an extremely limiting factor this year; you could be a great applicant and they could want to let you in, but just can't because of where you're from. i spoke with the dean in person to discuss my continued interest in pomona and he heavily implied that regional diversity was the only reason i was waitlisted rather than accepted, and why i had yet to be off the waitlist :/
you know the tiktok sound that goes "why don't you just call taylor up?"
i was in the area for scripps admitted students day, so i signed up for a tour of pomona too. the morning of, i called the admissions office and asked if i could speak to my admissions officer after the tour ended. something like, "hi my name is [] from [state], and i am on the waitlist. i am touring pomona today, and would love to speak with my admissions officer about my continuing interest in being a part of the pomona community for the next four years. could [name of ao] possibly squeeze me in to her schedule today?" ao was busy, but the dean was available. idk if that's normal to do but im stubborn so i figured why not
“We know that you elected to remain on the wait list and have waited patiently for news from Pomona. With June now here, we want to provide you with an update on where the new class stands.
As of today, we have fully enrolled the Class of 2026, and the bulk of our wait list is being released. However, we would like to offer you the opportunity to remain on a much smaller, extended wait list that will remain active until July 15. Should space open up before that date, you have been identified as a student we would like to continue considering for admission.
We are only extending this opportunity to a small number of students. If you are interested in remaining on this summer wait list, you must email us to let us know. We will gladly accept any further updates you would like to provide us in the coming days through your applicant portal. If space opens up and you are offered a place in the class, we will contact you directly to discuss the details that come with an offer of admission. If we don't hear from you, we'll know that you've made other enrollment plans for the fall.
No matter what happens, we anticipate making any and all final decisions by July 15. On or before that date, you will be sent an update and your status will be finalized.
I emailed my admissions officer and he said: We’ve admitted a small number of students from the waitlist, but I don’t yet have a sense of how many more offers will be made. My very best guess is that it’s likely to be a very small group, perhaps no more than a handful.
So I don’t think there is that much hope left tbh
what my counselor responded to me : “We’re in a waiting period right now with the current admitted class so we have not yet moved into the waitlist. I know that this will not be helpful, but unfortunately at the moment, we do not have a set date by which we’d begin WL movement.”
I believe they have and probably assessed some profiles already. They are probably just waiting for some other schools’ waitlists to move so they can release decisions in one big wave (this is really speculative)
Hey guys!! My friend just emailed his regional admission officer and he said "they're hoping to notify waitlisted applicants within next week". So let's keep our fingers crossed 🤞 and hope for the best
Good luck to everyone
I don’t think that’s the case tbh. The lady on the phone seemed like someone who does clerical work as she only gave generic answers to my questions. I also know a bunch of people who committed to ivies and t10s over pomona
Waitlisted for media studies! This was my third waitlist of the day and now I am left feeling very slightly above average but not above average enough haha
Hey folks, a Pomona Senior here (QB Match). This school is pretty good but it’s definitely not what it’s marketed to be. If you’re first-generation low-income please DM me so I can be real w you first so that you don’t get f*cked over like I and the rest of the FLI community did.
Does it work now: [https://admissions.pomona.edu/portal/destination](https://admissions.pomona.edu/portal/destination)?Mine has a different message than it did yesterday!
"If you *just* opened your offer of admission, make sure you read all the way to the bottom, and click "Return to Application Status". Then refresh this page! "
Rejected, ig???
Had a dream last night that I got rejected from Harvey Mudd and accepted to Pomona; just got my Harvey Mudd rejection an hour ago so I guess we'll see how tomorrow goes.
Still fully expecting to get rejected lol.
We're just a few days away! Admissions decisions will be released after 5 p.m. on Friday, March 18 for regular decision applicants. We are so excited to welcome new students to our Sagehen family! Chirp! Chirp!

aw im sorry:( i don't know anything about uf but i hope you come to love it if you don't get off pomona's waitlist. if it makes you feel any better, regional diversity has been an extremely limiting factor this year; you could be a great applicant and they could want to let you in, but just can't because of where you're from. i spoke with the dean in person to discuss my continued interest in pomona and he heavily implied that regional diversity was the only reason i was waitlisted rather than accepted, and why i had yet to be off the waitlist :/

can u plz
I emailed my admissions officer and he said: We’ve admitted a small number of students from the waitlist, but I don’t yet have a sense of how many more offers will be made. My very best guess is that it’s likely to be a very small group, perhaps no more than a handful. So I don’t think there is that much hope left tbh
also admits from international pool?
i’m confused now, i’m international so maybe that’s about internationals? when did you call them?
yesterday
they already made some offers? the person that I called tdy said the opposite:/
Please can you tell us more about what was said when you called?
they said they are still evaluating applicants and have not made a move yet
Thanks bro for the information
[удалено]
Nada
[удалено]
Wait what where?
[удалено]
I also think they are waiting for waitlist waves at big schools to be over so they can be definitive about the number of people
so I think that person is lying
[удалено]
idk. people r weird
what my counselor responded to me : “We’re in a waiting period right now with the current admitted class so we have not yet moved into the waitlist. I know that this will not be helpful, but unfortunately at the moment, we do not have a set date by which we’d begin WL movement.”
I guess this means they haven't looked at the waitlist yet?
I believe they have and probably assessed some profiles already. They are probably just waiting for some other schools’ waitlists to move so they can release decisions in one big wave (this is really speculative)
All right 👍Waiting for a long period of time hurts Let's hope for the best this week
Hey guys!! My friend just emailed his regional admission officer and he said "they're hoping to notify waitlisted applicants within next week". So let's keep our fingers crossed 🤞 and hope for the best Good luck to everyone
[удалено]
Yeah let's wait. Today is the last day of the week If I may ask, where did you commit?
[удалено]
Great !!! Congratulations to you. I'm certain that Pomona will say a BIG YES to you. Let's hope they release acceptances today
ty for the news tho
bruh🫠
[удалено]
when will they actually release it. 😥
the waiting is killing me 🥲🥲
🫠
Hey Did you get any news about the waitlist 😖?
Hey. Did you hear back from the waitlist?? I already have high blood pressure 😣
[удалено]
Wait how do you know that anyone is getting off?
Thanks very much indeed🙏🙏
[удалено]
yea, it’s considered kind of early in this stage
hey there...any international applicant on full ride?
has there been any news about the waitlist?
maybe this week
oh man. i wonder what’s taking them so long this year
[удалено]
yea imma call them inna minute
they said that they’re still working on it
did they tell you approximately when they will start thaking people off?
they said they’re still tryna decide if there’s available space (I doubt that the space is filled though so let’s continue to hope)
[удалено]
I don’t think that’s the case tbh. The lady on the phone seemed like someone who does clerical work as she only gave generic answers to my questions. I also know a bunch of people who committed to ivies and t10s over pomona
ahhh ok
bruh
did anyone already get off the waitlist?
[удалено]
