La Consolacion College Bacolod (also referred as LCCB or simply LCC) is a private, Catholic, co-educational institution of learning owned and administered by the sisters of the Order of St. Augustine in the Philippines. It is located in Bacolod City, Philippines.
Established on March 12, 1919 as Colegio de la Señora de la Consolacion by three Augustinian sisters – Sor Tomasa de la Sagrada Familia, Sor Maria Teresa de Jesus and Sor Alfonsa de la Santisima Trinidad, the college is the oldest institution of higher education in the province.
LCCB offers preschool, elementary, junior & senior high school, short-term, undergraduate and post-graduate courses. The school has three patrons - Our Lady of Consolation, St. Augustine of Hippo and St. Monica.
Upon the request of Jaro Bishop, Dennis Dougherty, the three sisters began apostolate work in Negros due to the significant Aglipayan presence in the province. On July 15, 1919, Colegio de la Señora de la Consolacion accepted its first 86 students, 36 of whom were interns who lived in the school dormitory. It started as an all-girls school back then.
