yah, pomona is getting much tougher to get into. still not as tough as slo but closing the gap. easily the second toughest admit in the csu. but you're right...if you know somebody on the inside at least you have a chance. but you need to bring something to the table and not just a 3.0 with no test scores. sometimes they lean if you're an athlete or musician or something like that....
