<p>“My point, however, is that in the world at large, Penn is much better known (i.e., there are many people who don’t know how good Pomona is). Internationally, I would guess, internationally, even more so. Hence, my comment that I feel Penn has a better rep. I believe it is better known.”</p>
<p>If OP’s intentions is to go to a top graduate school in the USA, Pomona students place better. Maybe it’s just that Pomona students are more likely to go to a top graduate school out of general interest than it being a better school for graduate school, but there is virtually NO difference in choosing either school. Prestige shouldn’t matter.</p>
<p>You can only go to Pomona once- for undergraduate. Something to keep in mind.</p>
