Pomona handles conduct through the Board of Judicial Affairs. The founding member of the Claremont Colleges consortium and consistently ranked among the top liberal arts colleges. Students receive a written notice of alleged violations, typically have an opportunity to respond or request a hearing, and face a decision that can be appealed through the institution's formal appeals pathway.
In most cases, no. Pomona College's Board of Judicial Affairs follows university policy, not the legal system. What you need is someone who understands how Pomona's specific process works and can help you prepare an effective case. An education advocate typically provides stronger, more targeted guidance than a general-practice attorney because the governing body of rules here is university policy, not criminal or civil procedure. AdvocatED brings deep, specialized expertise in these processes at a fraction of a law firm's cost.
Immediately. Pomona College sets strict deadlines for responding to allegations and filing appeals, often 5 to 10 business days from the date of the notice. Missing these windows eliminates procedural options that are otherwise available. Contact AdvocatED as soon as you receive any notice.
Most schools, including Pomona College, allow students to bring an advisor to conduct hearings. We will confirm exactly what Pomona's current policy permits and advise on how to have expert guidance in your corner, whether that means sitting with you at the hearing, preparing your opening statement, or conducting intensive pre-hearing preparation around the specific evidence in your case.
Title IX matters at Pomona College are generally handled by a Title IX office separate from general academic misconduct proceedings. Title IX cases have their own procedures, evidence standards, and timelines under federal regulations. If you are a respondent in a Title IX case, you should not conflate the process with a conduct case, and you should respond carefully to any notice you receive.
You likely still have appeal rights. Pomona College's appeals process allows students to contest decisions on grounds including procedural error, new evidence, and disproportionate sanction. Contact us immediately, appeal windows are short, often 5 to 10 business days, and the grounds available differ by school.
