Pomona Class of 2028 Official Thread

are you domestic? did your counsellor change? or is the same? or you do not see one?

neither register nor meet counselor, wby?

Domestic. Counselor the same as before. Can register for admitted students day. ED1 defer.

Well congrats because you are not rejected.

so, you mean you are most likely rejected?

I didn’t click submit? But the page populated like the screenshot above when I click the link

unfortunately yes :frowning:

I’m going to have to disagree with your logic. A single example of a counselor change coinciding with an acceptance (based on a waitlist conversion to acceptance at that) is far from statistically significant. Waitlist conversion is a very customized (non standardized) process.

The admission counselor at the bottom of my child’s applicant portal hasn’t changed and it’s been there for weeks (months?). Moreover, my child’s counselor is assigned based on our geography, so I don’t see any reason it would change. FWIW, Connect with Your Admissions Officer | Pomona College in Claremont, California - Pomona College has a list of all counselors.

Is there anybody who’s able to log into their applicant portal, but NOT able to access the Admitted Students Day? If so, that would be a fairly convincing tell. On the other hand, if every applicant is able to access the admitted student day page, then it’s probably open to everyone, and meaningless in terms of divining admission outcome

I’m international but I’ve never had the counsellor assigned in my portal since January.

Agree. The question is whether you can access the admitted students day registration. Can everyone see it (as seen in the screenshot above) or not?

I was able to log in to the admitted students page, and all it had was an ā€œonly accepted students can registerā€ page! seems like this is a pretty good indicator, congratulations! i assume the page appeared immediately because you already logged in to the pomona portal on that device prior.

i have a different counselor than before, but i don’t think that means anything.

Not me. :skull:. But I agree. This whole process…although on the surface it appears like a yes no or waitlist is actually very nuanced. There may be more to it than we can figure out. All the best everyone. The results come out in a few hours why waste your mental energy guessing it at this point… the results are declared at around 4 am for me so I will prolly get to know based on the replies in this forum​:skull:

Yes ofcource, this all has to be taken with a sprinkle of salt. And decisions come out soon anyways. But I used that logic because for some students counsellor changed.

Btw guys I notice my portal had another change

What?

I cannot see the admitted student day letter, which may mean rejection.

Below those big banners, there was explore poma column. I think I had two options there. But now I only see ā€˜visit campus’

So what does it indicate?

God knows, I just thought I should say? Sorry for my over excitement even when Im gonna get rejected

No, I cannot access the admitted student registration.
