English school in Los Angeles Whittier College

Experience life at a real American college at this sunny campus in a charming suburb of LA

Our Los Angeles Whittier College school

Whittier is a small liberal arts college on the border of Los Angeles and luxurious Orange County. Sharing the campus with Whittier undergraduates, you’ll get a taste of the true American student experience. Join clubs; watch games from the bleachers, and hang out with your friends after lectures in the quad. Whittier is our only school to offer dormitory residence alongside American college students, allowing you more opportunities to make friends and practice English with friendly native speakers.
