Soon after independence, the Christian community of Changanacherry, realizing the need for an educational institution for women in Central Travencore, conveyed their wish to their leaders. Rt.Rev.Dr.James Kalacherry the then Bishop of Changanacherry, welcomed the idea whole-heartedly and His Excellency laid the foundation stone for a Women’s College on 12th August 1949. Initially, the college functioned as an annexe of S.B. College. In 1950, when the Catholic Church solemnly proclaimed the bodily assumption of the Blessed Virgin as a dogma of faith, the name ‘Assumption’ was found to be appropriate for this new women’s college, In 1955, Rev. Sr. Xavier S.A.B.S took over as the first woman Principal of the college and with her the college started functioning as an independent institution. Most of Assumption’s academic excellence and disciplinary tradition can be traced back to her period of efficient administration. The Principals who succeeded her shared her vision and steadfastly adhered to Assumption’s ideal of excellence.

Assumption College, affiliated to Mahatma Gandhi University, Kerala, is one of the biggest and the most reputed NAAC accredited women’s colleges in the state. For more than half a century Assumption College has been rendering invaluable service in the field of higher education. Nearly 2000 students study in this college.

The college won the prestigious R Shankar Award from the Government of Kerala for the best college in the state in 1996-97, one of the first colleges to be honored so.

We became the first recipients of the Kerala Sports Council’s Award for the best college in Sports & Games.
