( Education )



Southwest Florida College first started its Fort Myers campus in 1974 as a business school, later expanding to Tampa.

In both its campuses, Southwest Florida College offers more than a dozen Associate degree courses in diverse fields such as criminology, hospitality, accounting, allied health, early childhood education and computer technology. As of 2005, it has earned senior college status which enabled it to offer more bachelor degree programs. Currently it offers bachelor degree programs in criminology and business management.

Both campuses offer day, night and weekend classes so you can easily find a schedule that will best suit your needs.

Southwest Florida College is committed to offering its students not just jobs but an entire career, and boasts of a placement program that has been 85-95% successful. Students don't just attend classroom lectures but also undergo job training in actual settings. Even after you graduate from Southwest Florida College, you can still seek help from the school regarding your career options.
You can seek financial assistance or career counseling through the website.

Like Orlando Culinary Academy, class sizes at Southwest Florida College are relatively smaller than that of traditional colleges and universities. This gives you greater opportunity to interact with your professors and classmates, and provides a more personal touch to your daily learning experiences.

During the recent years, Southwest Florida College has been continually upgrading its online site and adding more features. On a limited basis, you can now check your academic grades depending on whether your teacher has submitted them. You can also check out the annual calendar for important school activities and school starting and ending dates. The online site also posts job openings in side or outside of campus.

Southwest Florida College is also in the process of launching its online academic programs to pave the way for distance learning.

You can make inquiries through the online site, calling a toll-free number, or by visiting either of the two campuses.
