It owes its inception in 1946 to a few dedicated and farsighted members of Arya Samaj came together in 1945 and pooled their wisdom to undertake the venture of opening a college to cater to the educational needs of the area. They set out with a missionary zeal to raise funds for the college. They not only made liberal financial contributions but also reached out to the people to get them involved in their mission. Their relentless efforts fructified in 1946, when Arya College came into existence.
When education for women became the need of the hour, a separate girls wing of the college was started in 1970. New faculties were added from time to time. At present, there are under graduate courses in the faculties of Arts, Science, Computer Science, Commerce and Business Management.
