School Description

Provided by South Louisiana Community College

South Louisiana Community College seeks to cultivate a learning environment in which participants develop the qualities and skills necessary to engage actively in the economy, governance, and culture of South Louisiana and in the global arena. This function is fostered in a climate which focuses upon intellectual rigor, caring, and respect for the diverse cultures of the College community.

South Louisiana Community College was created by act of the Louisiana Legislature in 1997 as a "comprehensive, multi-campus, public, two-year institution of higher education." The legislation prescribes for the College both an academic and a vocational component and stipulates that programs offered by the College be developed "to assure the delivery of coordinated and articulated educational services in each parish comprising the primary service delivery area." The primary service delivery area includes the parishes of Acadian, Evangeline, Iberia, Lafayette, St. Landry, St. Martin, St. Mary, and Vermilion.

SLCC remains true to our mission as we seek to improve the quality of life for residents of South Louisiana. Students throughout our eight-parish service area are enrolling at SLCC in record numbers. Whether academic, vocational and technical programs, or community and continuing education courses are their goal, students find that SLCC is easily accessible and a source of valuable educational services in Acadiana.
