La Consolación College Manila is a private, Catholic institution in the City of Manila, the Philippines. It was founded in 1902 when the Apostolic Nuncio to the Philippines offered ten Filipino Augustinian nuns a house near the Basilica of San Sebastián.
The College is located beside the College of the Holy Spirit and across Centro Escolar University in the city's San Miguel district, which also contains Malacañang Palace.
La Consolación College is along Mendiola Street, and occupies a trapezoidal, 2.8 hectare lot enclosed by Arlegui, San Rafael, C.A. Aguila and Mendiola streets. It is part of the University Belt, an unofficial subdistrict of Manila that includes other educational institutions along Claro M. Recto Avenue and Legarda Street.
With the completion of the LRT-2 with stations at Recto and Legarda, La Consolacion College Manila is only minutes away from areas up north like Pasig, Marikina, and Quezon City. From the south, buses, fxs, and jeepneys find their route to the heart of Mendiola making the college accessible from any part of the metro.
It is one of the Catholic schools administered by the Augustinian Sisters of Our Lady of Consolation (ASOLC). Aside from the Administration building, Mo. Consuelo Barcelo Auditorium, Gregor Mendel Science Center, and classroom buildings — St. Augustine, Sta. Monica, Our Lady of Consolation, Kamalayan (which houses the college library), and the Mother Rita Building (also known as LCCM International Center) — La Residencia 1 and 2 (dormitories), occupy the land area. Today, there are more than 3,500 students, faculty, and staff.
