  At the turn of the 21st century, the people of Puducherry saw the dawn of ACHARIYA EDUCATIONAL PUBLIC TRUST. It was founded by a young and vibrant educationist, Dr. J. Arawindhan and his beloved mother, Smt. J. Adhilakshmi, with the aim of taking education to new heights and to provide world class education to the people of Puducherry. ACHARIYA under the able guidance of our MANAGING TRUSTEE and CHIEF MENTOR, Dr. J. Arawindhan started various educational institutions in and around Pondicherry. ACHARIYA aims at building a new society that would be the face of emerging India.
In July 2004, ACHARIYA EDUCATIONAL PUBLIC TRUST added another feather to its cap by establishing ACHARIYA ARTS AND SCIENCE COLLEGE, affiliated to the prestigious Pondicherry University. Right from its inception, the college continues to get the support and love of the students and their parents. Its growing popularity has multiplied manifold in the recent years from a modest beginning, ACHARIYA ARTS AND SCIENCE COLEGE was upgraded as a Post Graduate Institution from the year 2009 - 2010.
The students are bestowed with the best education academically and otherwise. They not only enrich their academic knowledge but also get themselves involved in co-curricular and extra-curricular activities. Their growth is monitored by well trained and dedicated teachers. Besides curricular activities the students take active part in N.C.C., N.S.S., workshops, seminars, industrial visits and educational trips in order to explore their true potentials.
The state of art classrooms, laboratories, library, auditorium, hostel, canteen and transport facilities make it possible to achieve greater heights in the years to come. In nutshell, ACHARIYA ARTS AND SCIENCE COLLEGE has become "A place for your placement…". Of late AASC has become the first and the most sought after institution in the Union Territory of Puducherry.

Principal's Message
Principal's It is indeed a pleasure to have an access to you,
In the era of knowledge driven economy and learning societies education is expected to play a vital role in promoting economic solidarity & sustainable development. The economy of Puducherry has favorable features that make possible and aid the building up of a prosperous growing economy, and so Puducherry should aspire to become a knowledge society.
The 21st century has been acknowledged as the knowledge century. It has a direct link with Higher Education across the World. As we move towards a knowledge based economy, the path we lay to produce and disseminate education will increasingly determine the competition in preparing the highly skilled youth our Nation requires. The path is more important than the outcome. Realising this need of the hour, ACHARIYA ARTS AND SCIENCE COLLEGE, has framed its Vision and Mission. At ACHARIYA, we see that learning is transferred into an enjoyable experience which rewards excellence and consistency in performance.
Beloved students, I am sure that you will realize this when you become an ACHARIYAN.
