The Power
Of Possible

Students who thrive on hands-on learning and absorbing as much information as possible really find their niche here. Discovery, research, and the creation of knowledge is embedded into a Whittier College education.

Nearly half of Whittier College students participate in varsity and intramural sports at Whittier College -- from Division III basketball and lacrosse to inner tube water polo and club rugby. 

For curious minds who can't pick just one or two majors. The Whittier Scholars Program allows you to combine courses across disciplines and subjects to create a customized major that fits your academic and career goals.

Cultural exchange, foreign language immersion, faculty-led study trips, scholarships, fellowships, unique academic endeavors, semester abroad—all of these are hallmarks of the international study experience available through Whittier College.

You don't have to wait until graduation to start building your resume. By combining extra-curricular activities, internships, and fellowships, you'll leave Whittier fully prepared for your first job or graduate school.
