Welcome to St.Xavier’s College

‘Excellentia In Perseverantia’ – In Pursuit of Excellence

St. Xavier’s College, a beacon of education, stands as a testament to the dedication and foresight of the Diocese of Calicut. The Diocese of Calicut was established on June 12, 1923, by the Jesuit missionaries, laid the foundations of modern education in the Malabar region. Their visionary approach set the stage for meeting the educational needs of the community.

The Diocese’s missionary and educational commitment has been unwavering, with a central focus on empowering and uplifting individuals across all societal spectrums, transcending barriers of caste, creed, and gender. As the new millennium dawned, recognizing the evolving times and the growing demand for higher education, the diocese recognized the imperative to venture into this domain.

In response to this need, Bishop Joseph Kalathiparambil, then the Bishop of Calicut, spearheaded the establishment of an Educational and Charitable Trust. This initiative marked the birth of St. Xavier’s Arts and Science College, embodying the aspirations for providing quality higher education to the community. The college has since continued to evolve and serve as a pillar of enlightenment, instilling knowledge, values, and opportunities for the betterment of society.

Principal’s Message

Higher education institutions have a pivotal role to play in the development of a nation in general and in the uplift of rural agrarian communities in particular. The capacity of the institutions established/funded by the Govt is found to be incommensurate with the demand for higher education opportunities in Kerala. Self-financed colleges play a crucial role in ensuring inclusive education by providing opportunities for higher studies to those students who do not get admission in Govt/aided colleges. St. Xavier’s Arts and Science College, a leading self-financed higher education institution, was founded in the year 2011 by Mar Joseph Kalathiparambil, former Bishop of Calicut.
