Visiting Scholars

Faculty members occasionally wish to host visiting scholars, either independently or through organizations such as the Fulbright Commission, and the College is happy to welcome such visitors as appropriate. Before making any commitment, the faculty member should email a request to the Dean of the College, outlining the potential visitor's scholarly qualifications and how his/her work intersects with the faculty member's own research and/or teaching. Once permission is granted, the Dean of the College's office will initiate the process by which the visitor will obtain a Pomona College ID card, library access, and an email account. If needed, and based on availability, the Associate Dean of the College in charge of office space will assign the visiting scholar an office in the College. The faculty host is responsible for housing, health insurance, and any other logistics. The visitor is responsible for obtaining any required visa before arrival.
