About
The regional Palmetto College campuses (Lancaster, Salkehatchie, Sumter, Union) are branch campuses of the University of South Carolina Columbia. The University of South Carolina Columbia is accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges to award associate, baccalaureate, master’s, and doctoral degrees.
Established in 1959, USCL is the oldest of the University of South Carolina’s four regional campuses. Since then, the campus and student body have grown, but the mission remains the same. We’re devoted to preparing students to continue their education in the University and throughout life.
