Govt. College for Women Info

Situated on the banks of “Arasalar”, a tributary of river Cauvery in the State of Tamil Nadu in the post independent era, the college was started in the year 1963 with the foundation stone of the main block being laid by Dr.C.N.Annadurai, the then Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu on 28.07.1967 and subsequently inaugurated by the Educational & Industries Minister Hon. V.R.Nedunchezhiyan. Incidentally, it became the first Women’s college to have been started after independence. The college has carved a niche for itself in imparting quality education to the students hailing from economically weaker and socially backward sections of the society. The college has a strength of 4549 students and 172 teaching staff and 55 non-teaching staff.
