Whittier Fund - Scholarships

Whittier Fund - Scholarships remain one of our most powerful tools for opening Whittier's transformational education to more students. Every Whittier College student receives some form of financial assistance, and your support makes that possible.

Your generosity directly strengthens the affordability and accessibility of a Whittier education. Our greatest strength is our inclusivity—not our exclusivity—and the scholarships you fund open doors for talented, determined Poets who might not otherwise have this opportunity. 

Beyond expanding access, your gifts ensure students can thrive once they arrive. You help provide the stability they need to take full advantage of an environment rooted in personal growth, mentorship, and student success. Simply put, you're not just helping students to get to Whittier—you're helping them flourish here.
