Scholarship Summary:
The exclusive Westmont Augustinian Scholars Program (ASP) offers a four-year scholarship and honors curriculum to 60 incoming first-year students (domestic and international) committed to academic excellence and Christian formation.
The ASP selects students to study the work of St. Augustine of Hippo and other key thinkers in the Christian intellectual tradition because a rigorous pursuit of truth grows out of our pursuit of God.
