Connect Through Webinars

Pomona Admissions offers live monthly webinars on a variety of topics, from Pomona 101, to alumni panels, financial aid and application tips and explorations of different majors. Students, parents, counselors or educators are invited to register and log in to a webinar at a pre-designated time, but recordings will also be made available here once the sessions have concluded. Friendly admissions and financial aid officers, as well as current Pomona students, use video sharing to present information on a scheduled topic, always with a Q&A period at the end. Register if you are unable to attend but would like to receive a recording. Craving a topic you don’t see listed here? Share your idea with our webinar coordinator, Nathalie Jimenez.
