Scripps is best known for humanities, but I know a ridiculous number of premed students here, though neuroscience would be more easily done at Pomona.Īnd both schools spoil their students. That's ultimately how my friend made her decision and she doesn't regret it. While Scripps does have merit aid possibilities, Pomona also gives out fantastic money. I would actually say Scripps has slightly nicer dorm rooms. Either school would be great, so you should consider the best fit for you.Ĭan anyone add to the plusses of each school? If you get accepted to Pomona, which you probably have a better than average chance to do, I would consider trying to make it to visit in April. Things that are great about both: 5 C's, and ability to take classes at all 5 great profs dedicated students great food and dorms Scripps plusses: Beautiful campus great women classmates Accelerated Science curriculum for those who apply and are accepted (though may not be good for those going to Medical school) best food of the 5 C's Probably more relevant core classes though take up 3 semester classes merit aid possibilities. Pomona plusses: Besides those already sited, more neuroscience profs less intense core, only 1 class reputation for great professors spoil their students greater variety of majors and courses somewhat nicer dorm rooms and then there is that prestige thing.
