    Whether Whittier College is worth the money depends on the student and how much you take advantage of the resources. There are scholarships and fellowships available but you have to do the work. Going to every class, attending the various academic and career oriented events, and establishing a network with professors, alumni, and professionals associated with college make the cost worth it.
