Southwest Early College Campus, often shortened to Southwest, was a university preparatory middle school and high school campus located at 6512 Wornall Road in Kansas City, Missouri, 64113, United States.

Students had the opportunity to take college-level courses with the potential to earn from 20 to 60 college credits and prepare for the rigors of college through a mix of training and relationships with professors and master teachers from the University of Missouri-Kansas City.

By the time a student graduated from Southwest, they would have earned those hours of college credit from the university.

The Southwest campus allowed students to utilize an on-site planetarium and science laboratories.

The Early College Campus started with 240 students, and added approximately another 240 every year.
