EF Brittin College Prep: Santa Barbara

This lovely coastal city of golden beaches, glittering ocean and glorious mountains, provides the ideal environment for university preparation studies. Experience the city's informal friendliness at the EF Brittin College Prep campus, with its prime location near the city centre.

Picture perfect

The palm-lined squares, shady arcades and bubbly fountains of Santa Barbara create a picture-perfect setting in which to prepare for university. Mild temperatures mean year-round outdoor activities, from rollerblading along the beachfront promenade to sailing, biking and golf. Explore the architecture of Santa Barbara Mission, a testimony to the heritage of the early Californian settlers. State Street offers exclusive boutiques, famous-name department stores and intriguing antique shops. After school, meet friends and watch the sunset at a laid back beachside café.
