History

Saint Louis College of San Fernando, La Union, traces its roots from its humble beginnings in 1948 when Msgr. Anselmo Lazo, the parish priest then of San Fernando, La Union, founded Father Burgos College, which occupied the building just south of Saint William's Cathedral.

On the first year of operation as Fr. Burgos College, the High School Department accepted only first year and second year male enrollees. The College department on the other hand initially offered only four courses: four-year Education Course, two-year courses on Liberal arts and Commerce, and one-year Secretarial course.

In 1964, the Diocese of San Fernando turned over the ownership and management of Fr. Burgos College to the Congregation of the Immaculate Heart of Mary (CICM). Father Alfred Spincemaille, CICM was appointed as the first Rector.

In 1967, the school was renamed Saint Louis College of San Fernando and was transferred to Carlatan, San Fernando, La Union, its current location.
