Intellectual Opportunity

Classes are small, so students and faculty can build close relationships, delve into research and explore across academic fields. More than half of all Pomona students work closely with professors in research projects, receiving academic and financial support for a deeper approach to learning.

The Power of Place

More than 90% of our students live on campus here in Southern California all four years, and many professors live within five miles of campus. New collaborations or discussions can spring up anywhere – a residence hall, club meeting or at lunch with a professor.

Community Engagement

2026 California Gubernatorial Debate

Watch how our politically-active students got an unforgettable look at democracy in action, just a short walk from their dorm rooms. Pomona College, in partnership with CBS California and APAPA (Asian Pacific American Public Affairs), hosted the biggest and most inclusive debate in the 2026 race for California’s next governor.
