INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS
WELCOME
Pomona Catholic welcomes students from around the world. We believe that international students enhance the education of our community in and out of the classroom. International Students participate in all aspects of the PC community–classroom, clubs, visual and performing art, music, debate, sports, and so on.
The International Students’ College Counselor, Mrs. Punkay works with all of our International students to guide them, helps them evaluate their careers, and works with them every step through college application process.
Pomona Catholic is registered with SEVIS, the Student and Exchange Visitor Information System and is authorized to issue I-20s visa so that students may acquire an F-1 visa. We also accept applications for visa transfers from other American high schools.
