Lake Charles, Louisiana – June 18, 2025

Attendees will tour various program areas, learn about the benefits of dual enrollment, meet faculty and register for dual enrollment classes.
The tour will also discuss the transferability of courses. SOWELA is accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges (SACSCOC), so the College’s credits are widely transferable.
