Each of the
Claremont Colleges, which include Claremont McKenna, Harvey Mudd, Pitzer, Pomona, Scripps, Claremont Graduate University, and the Keck Graduate Institute of Applied Life Sciences, has its own student body, faculty, administration, campus, curricular emphasis, and individual style and purpose. And yet, because of their adjoining campuses, the colleges form a mutually beneficial partnership to offer joint academic programs and cross-registration in courses, to cultivate special curricular strengths on which the others may draw, to encourage contact and cooperation among faculty and students from different campuses, and to combine physical facilities and extracurricular programs.
Claremont is located in Los Angeles County. Total enrollment is approximately 1000 with student housing available for 882.
