Palmetto College

Launched in 2013, Palmetto College is the University of South Carolina’s online bachelor’s degree completion consortium providing leadership, management, and coordination of online education across all eight USC campuses. Through Palmetto College, students can begin and complete high-quality bachelor’s degrees, through asynchronous or real-time delivery, without disrupting personal, family, and professional commitments.

In addition to its degree completion mission, Palmetto College is also an administrative organization encompassing the University’s four associate degree-granting regional campuses (Lancaster, Salkehatchie, Sumter and Union) and Palmetto College Columbia.
