Westmont Bookstore Review

i hate this school ,it is in the mouton and the dorm's rule is ridiculous

Beautiful campus but more importantly great solid Christian education!

Prestigious University, beautiful campus! This is a remarkable school on a beautiful piece of property in montecito, CA!

Relaxing and Beautiful campus - an all around enjoyable experience. The students and staff were welcoming.

Solid education from a liberal arts approach that teaches students to think for themselves. Great off campus programs like the Europe semester, international business institute, urban program.

There's a reason this was the highest ranking Christian school in the latest US News and World Reports rankings. It's a fantastic Christian school, a fantastic liberal arts school in general, a genuine college community.

Everyone I know who went there left Westmont as a gloabal-thinking, critically-minded, erudite individual. This isn't a place where kids go to college to party, skip classes, or sit in a 100-300 person lecture hall. I never had a class over 45 students and most of my classes were more like 10-20. The professors here are brilliant men and women, many of whom could easily be teaching at prestigious research institutions but who instead chose to contribute to the wonderful, thoughtful liberal arts program at this school. I loved every minute of my Westmont experience. I'm a better person for it, and I have better friends and mentors from my college years because it's truly a community that cares - about their peers, about the world, and about asking smart questions about life, faith, and our own imperfections.

This is not a Bible-thumper college. It's a high quality liberal arts college that hearkens back to the foundations of Christian renaissance style education. It's a very challenging school academically. If you are lucky enough to get in here and have the means, don't think about it twice. Go. I had a full scholarship to USC and chose Westmont instead. It's turned out to be the best decision of my life.

The gorgeous Montecito location is just a wonderful bonus!

Went to deliver food for doordash and couldn't find the person who ordered the items from the store. Thank God another guy was delivering to the same person we finalky found her way later. If messes up your delivery time.

So blessed and thankful that our son was able to attend and graduate from Westmont. We prayed for a college where he could thrive and grow in his walk with the Lord. Westmont was the answer to that prayer in every way. Superior curriculum; wonderful thoroughly Christian professors and atmosphere.

Beautiful campus, only thing that could maybe be improved are the common rooms.

Transferred to Westmont from a state university, and I've never regretted the decision.

Classroom sizes are small, allowing you to learn more directly from the professors instead of T.A.'s (common in large universities).

Also, the relationships you build with the professors are definitely powerful for networking after graduation and finding jobs.

Two things I did not like at Westmont College.
1. Dining Commons - only one choice to dine on campus, not really allowing much of an option. They do serve a large variety of food choices, but are still the monopoly on campus.
2. Tuition costs are ridiculous. Thank God for scholarships and grants, because taking this tuition cost on loans is terrifying.

VISITOR warning! dont believe there lies about it being an open campus. It's a small school and everyone knows everyone. A visitor will stick out. Trying to enjoy lunch in there cafeteria a few years ago brought security and interigration of why I'm there. Security gave my info to the vice-president or dean or someone who sent me threatening certified mail and then contacted SB city college who had security waiting outside my class! SB city college said "we're sister schools" An attorney said it would cost 10K to find out who was lying about me and the attorney said Westmont was constantly being sued. If stopped by security make sure to NOT show ID or answer any questions, they will use anything you say against you. Your constitutional rights protect you,

An amazing place to go to college. The price tag looks ridiculous I know but they give good scholarships, make sure you check them out before you write it off!

Beautiful college. Wonderful experience. I'm so happy my daughter chose this place but so far from home.

I attended a commencement last year with my wife who graduated in 2015 from there. It is an amazing campus and up kept quite nicely.
