Colegio San Agustin – Bacolod (CSA-B) is a private, co-educational, Catholic institution of learning owned and administered by the Augustinians of the Province of Santo Niño de Cebu in the Philippines. It is located in Bacolod City, the capital of Negros Occidental province. The Spanish Augustinians were the first Christian religious order to enter the Philippines and begin its conversion to Catholicism.

Colegio San Agustin – Bacolod is a Philippine Accrediting Association of Schools, Colleges and Universities-accredited institution, bearing a Level II accredited status.

The Augustinians acquired the Casanova School founded by Doña Soledad Locsin on August 9, 1961. On July 8, 1962, the Casanova School ceased to be and became Colegio de San Agustin de Bacolod. The broadened educational program envisioned by the Augustinian administrators paved the way for the school to offer kindergarten, elementary and high school education.

Construction of the administration building along North Drive and 20th Street commenced in May 1963; it was inaugurated later that same year. On July 19, 1964, the College Department opened with curricular offerings ranging from Liberal Arts, Education, Commerce, Secretarial and technology courses such as Chemical and Mechanical Engineering, Chemistry and Medical Technology, which were not being offered in other schools in Bacolod City at that time.
