Autonomy Status

The college was first accredited by NAAC in 2003 with an 'A' grade with the overall institutional score of 88%. In 2009 it was reaccredited by NAAC and scored an 'A' grade with a CGPA of 3.61 on a scale of 4. In the 3rd cycle of accreditation, it acquired an 'A++' grade with a CGPA of 3.70 on a four-point scale.

The college was granted AUTONOMOUS STATUS by University grants commission on 18th July, 2018. However, the college will remain affiliated to University of Mumbai. As an autonomous college we will be able to:

  • > Review existing courses/programs, and restructure, redesign and prescribe our own courses/programs of study and syllabi
  • > Formulate new courses/programs
  • > Evolve methods of assessment of student's performance, conduct of examinations and notification of results
  • > Announce results, issue mark sheets, migration and other certificates; however, the degree shall be awarded by the University with the name of the college on the degree certificate

#Autonomy gives us the freedom to design our own curriculum, keeping in mind the needs and requirements of our student body, our country and world. The evaluation process, too, is designed to ensure an objective and holistic assessment of student's performance at examinations.


The following committees are formulated under Autonomy -

  • > Governing Body
