Two hours north of Los Angeles, the city of Santa Barbara features stunning views of ocean and mountains as well as traditional Spanish architecture and a lively downtown shopping area.
Nestled on the edge of all this is Westmont College, a small, private, Christian school offering traditional liberal arts academics and an engaging student life.
Westmont’s majors include such academic subject areas as Biology, English, European Studies, History, Modern Languages, Philosophy and Religion. Fine and performing arts programs encompass Visual Art, Music and Theatre. Several professional majors are also available in such fields as Computer Science, Education, Kinesiology and Physical Education.
A spirited student life community completes the Westmont experience. Since it is a religious school, there are religious organizations and activities including a campus ministry. Additionally, there is a student literary magazine, a theatre performance group as well as on-campus concerts, dances and coffee shops. There are also off-campus community service opportunities.
Freshman admission to Westmont requires completion of certain core high school courses.
In addition to talent and merit scholarships Westmont, in conjunction with federal aid programs, awards loans and grants to students who demonstrate financial need.
