Overview of Southwestern College
Southwestern College is a "skills-first" institution of learning with five campus locations spanning the states of Ohio and Kentucky. The college prepares its students for future employment by training them in basic skills with real-world applications. Students can earn associate's degrees, diplomas, or certificates in various areas of study in the allied health, information technology, criminal justice, and business fields. Originally known as the Southwestern College of Business, the institution began as a two-campus school with locations in Hamilton, Ohio and Franklin, Ohio. Over the years, the college expanded to five campus locations and now boasts four Ohio campuses as well as a campus located in Florence, Kentucky. In 2004, Southwestern was purchased by Lincoln Educational Services Corporation, which also owns and operates over twenty other schools including eight Lincoln Technical Institute schools.

The Dayton campus offers a beautiful river view and fast access to the city. The Franklin campus is housed in a renovated elementary school built in 1931 that still retains its classic appearance. Both Cincinnati campuses offer computer laboratories and medical labs. The Kentucky campus in Florence is conveniently located off the Route 75 expressway just 10 minutes south of Cincinnati.
