Westmont in San Francisco
At Westmont in San Francisco, you’ll join a cohort of students living in a 4-story home in the beautiful Pacific Heights neighborhood. The program provides opportunities for vocational discernment and professional connections across a wide range of disciplines through an 8-unit internship. While taking classes that connect directly with lived experiences, students will also work for organizations serving diverse populations across a range of professions. Join the unique experience of living independently in an urban setting while also benefiting from the support of a uniquely tight-knit community.
The WSF program is oriented around grappling with big questions concerning identity, faith, and community engagement. The cohort gathers weekly to engage these questions and how they connect with our spiritual formation and Christian faith journeys. Alumni report that their transformational experiences have profoundly shaped their professional life and worldview.
