The Claremont Colleges - General Overview (May 2026)

The Claremont Colleges -- Claremont McKenna, Harvey Mudd, Pitzer, Pomona, and Scripps Colleges -- are united by a unique spirit of collaboration and connectivity that influences every part of academics, athletics, and student life. The “5Cs” are literally located across the street from one another, so students can attend a small, tightly-focused college even as they enjoy the benefits of a bigger, multi-faceted campus. During this Online Claremont Colleges Reception (OCCR) recording, you'll discover what makes our consortium special, hear more about our distinctive missions, and learn about the selective college admission process.
