Diversity & Access at Pomona

At Pomona, diversity isn’t a buzzword. It’s crucial to our educational mission. Students enter with widely divergent backgrounds and experiences. They come from all 50 states (as well as the District of Columbia, Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands and Puerto Rico) and more than 60 countries outside of the United States. Over half identify as domestic students of color and more than 18% are in the first generation of their family to attend a four-year college or university.

Students at Pomona engage with, and learn from, peers, faculty, staff and community members whose identities and perspectives may differ considerably from–and even challenge–theirs. This complex intersection of identities and perspectives enriches the larger academic and social communities at Pomona.
