Admissions

External Credit

It is possible to obtain Pomona College credit for the following:

1. Advanced Placement Credit. Scores of 4 and 5 on Advanced Placement Exams are eligible for credit. See the section Grades, Credit and the Academic Record  in this catalog for more information.
2. International Baccalaureate Credit. One course credit is granted for scores of 6 or 7 on higher-level International Baccalaureate examinations.
3. College Courses Taken While in High School. Credits will be allowed for transferable courses on receipt of a college transcript. There is no limit to the amount of advanced standing credit that may be accrued through Advanced Placement, International Baccalaureate and pre-matriculation college courses, but credit for advanced standing does not supersede the College’s requirement of 30 postcollege-matriculation courses as part of the 32 courses needed for graduation.
