Reply to "Pomona-Pitzer"

It is part of the Claremont Colleges, but the roster for Pomona-Pitzer is made up of players enrolled at either Pomona College or Pitzer, while the Claremont-McKenna-Harvey Mudd-Scripps is made up of players from CMS.  They have a natural rivalry with both teams being adjacent schools to each other, but they each have their own baseball facilities.  They play in the SCIAC conference, which is all SoCal based so no long road trips necessary and the weather is never a factor.

Combining all of the campuses gives it more of a bigger school feel with about 5K students versus most smaller LAC.  Decent facilities and a nice community feel around the campus.  But it is very expensive, and there is no merit money available since the students are all high achievers.  And of course no athletic money.  So unless you qualify for financial-need based aid, it is over $75K per year for tuition and room and board (required for all freshman).  Son liked the coach and the academics are excellent, but we did not have $300K planned for his education.  The HC admitted he loses a lot of recruits for the same reason we cited.

Definitely worth consideration if they are interested in you and you can make the finances work!
