Maulana Azad College was founded on 9 December 1926 by Victor Bulwer-Lytton, 2nd Earl of Lytton, then Governor of Bengal. It was originally called Islamia College. The institution was the culmination of efforts of notable Muslim leaders like A. K. Fazlul Huq, Syed Nawab Ali Chowdhury and Sir Abdul Rahim.With an objective to promote Islamic learning and general education among the Muslim population in British India and with the sustained efforts of contemporary education minister of Bengal, A. K. Fazlul Haque, on December 9, 1924, Lord Lytton, the contemporary Governor of Bengal laid the foundation stone of Islamia College under the affiliation of University of Calcutta. The journey started under the leadership of The Principal, Mr. A. H. Harley, formerly, faculty of Oriental Languages, Edinburg University, UK.Post-independence, the college was renamed as Central Calcutta College and generously moved beyond religious barrier and was open for all male students. The leadership responsibility was rendered by Professor F. J. F. Pereira.In 1960, the final baptism held as Maulana Azad College in the memory of the great national leader, erudite scholar and the first education minister of the independent India-Maulana Abul Kalam Azad. In 1990, the college was declared as co-educational institution. Gradually, the institution evolved as an academic place of harmonious co-existence amidst the plurality of gender, language, culture and religion.

I was here for my Practical exams and I must say Im impressed. This place is better maintained and cleaner than many other popular colleges in Kolkata. The hallways are neat and clean. The corridors are spacey. The downside is the classroom sizes. They are simply compact. The benches are bigger in comparison to the room size. The teachers are polite and friendly. I liked that fact.I have also heard that their tuition fees are much cheap compared to other colleges.

Maulana Azad College has developed itself over the years and retains its prestigious position as the foremost of institutions. Our Alumni occupy distinguished positions in almost all spheres of in several fields of activity both in the country as well as abroad. It has been a long journey through the eighty-five years and yet the journey has perhaps just begun.The College has practiced a policy of self-renewal all along and when the time came to reinvent itself in the context of the changing scenario; it has upgraded itself with the introduction of three post-graduates.The College seeks to create an intellectual environment that enhances individual growth and supports scholarly activities and creative endeavors that augment human knowledge and understanding.

Though I am just in the First year of English Hons. I am bound to say that it is one among the most honourable and sophisticated institutions. Starting from where I hear of ragging from my friends I received unaccountable respect and love from the seniors, of teachers - they are but of indispensable potential, and the infrastructure and environment of the college is just the best. You wont find even a single disrespectful act being carried out in the college. People are always up to help, and professors are always up to give their ace in their respective departments. I am honoured to be a part of this college.

The college has been elevated to Grade A after NAACs reaccreditation in 2016. The infrastructure and the environment of the college are just awesome. The college union is very helpful.

I am an ex student of this college, its a great Institute. Here education is encouraged, the faculty is great, the physics, botany, english, chemistry, mathematics departments are one of the best under Calcuttaa university. The commerce department is par the average though.But here politics is not very active thus the students who are regular here are more interested in studies than political agendas.

Accreditation for cycle-II is on process and the visit by the NAAC Peer Team is expected on September, 2016.Accreditation of an institution of higher education by the NAAC indicates that it meets criteria for the assessment of institutional quality periodically applied though a peer reviews process. An accredited college or university is one which has available the necessary resources to achieve its stated purposes through appropriate educational programs, is substantially doing so, and gives reasonable evidence that it will continue to do so in the foreseeable future. Institutional integrity is also addressed through accreditation.
