"SDN, went to westernu.edu and read about the school, and talked to some COMP students and alumni." Report Response
"I actually liked the look and feel of the school. It was small, quiet, very clean and organized in its layout, the buildings looked new and the interior was very nice. The classrooms where you will learn everything are very high tech with internet and power outlets at every chair, several projectors/tv monitors, wi-fi around campus, etc... The interviewers were very friendly and informative! Wonderful admissions staff. They also give you a nice packet of info when you interview." Report Response
"The lack of restaurants within walking distance of the campus. I think there was a subway, an italian restaurant, a hookah lounge, and a bar next to campus." Report Response
"The location is NOT THAT BAD! I have lived in the suberbs and in urban environments. By everyone's description, I though I was about to go into some shanty hooverville. The school is very clean and secure while the surrounding area is not bad at all (but its not the Hamptons either). I think Pomona has improved over the last few decades (at least the area that Western is in). The city does have restaurants (although a bit off campus), an art district, farmer's market, etc... You are nearby the Claremont colleges, so if you want to be around many students, that is an option. You have access to all of LA. I went during spring break, so the school was a ghost town. There were not that many faculty or students around to ask questions. " Report Response
"I had a lovely experience at Western and I hope to start school this August. " Report Response
