Name-plate of the college at the front gate

Today’s Dhaka City College, one of the most recognized colleges of Bangladesh was established in 1957 under the patronage of some educationists and patriotic social workers. At the initial stage the classes of the college were held at West End High School and thereafter at Dhaka College. In 1970 the college was shifted to Dhanmondi Road No. 2 at its own premises.
Among those who contributed greatly to the establishment of this institution, the names of Mr. Khan Bahadur Abdur Rahman and Mr. Ataur Rahman Khan, former Prime Minister of Bangladesh may be remembered with due honor and gratitude. Mr. Khaney Alom Khan, former Chairman of the Governing Body was almost a symbol of selfless patronage in arranging financial assistance for the rapid structural development of the college buildings and for the ceaseless endeavor for the development of the college while he was the Divisional commissioner of Dhaka Division.  The college owes greatly to Mr. Hafiz Uddin, the Principal of the college for its present glory and success. He joined this college as Lecturer in Accounting in 1970 and assumed the office of the Principal in 1977. Since then he has been rendering his valuable service to the nation by imparting quality education in this seat of learning. Perhaps, his greatest success as an administrator lies in his capability of maintaining a congenial academic atmosphere and ensuring quality education in this college. Under his efficient guidance and administration, the college has remarkably developed both structurally and academically and the name and fame of the college has already spread both at home and abroad.
Recently a new building has open at the frond of the Dhaka City College Premises.

History

Notre Dame College was established in Arambagh, Dhaka in November, 1949. It was established by the Roman Catholic Priests from the Order of Holy Cross because of the crisis in the education sector of the new born East Pakistan. It was known as the St. Gregory College, an extension of the St. Gregory's School, which was also established by the mission. It was relocated to its current location in Motijheel in 1954 and renamed to Notre Dame College. The new name was a tribute to the University of Notre Dame, the alma mater of many of the faculty members. In French Notre Dame means Our Lady, that stands for Mother Mary.
Students of the college obtained the first place in the combined merit list of the Higher Secondary Certificate Examinations seven times in eight years between 1952 and 1959. The institution, run by Roman Catholics, is open to all students, whether rich or poor, Bengali or tribal, Muslim, Christian, Hindu, or Buddhist. Entrance of Notre Dame College
The college began with classes in arts and commerce subjects. By 1955, it had Bachelor of Arts courses and in 1960, it started Bachelor of Science courses. It gained affiliation with the University of Dhaka in 1955. In 1959 it was declared the best college in East Pakistan in recognition of the high percentage of successful candidates in university examinations.
In the 1960s, it fell short of teachers. The problem led the college authority to borrow volunteers from a British organization called Graduate Volunteers Service Overseas who taught at the college from 1963 to 1970. It was during this period when researcher Father Richard Timm, C.S.C. became associated with the college. Like every other college in the country, Notre Dame was becoming more and more trapped in the growing political agitation throughout the country during 1968-69 and its administration was put to a delicate and trying situation especially in the months of the country's war of liberation. The college was involved in relief and rehabilitation work at that time.
The college continued its efforts to provide education to its students in independent Bangladesh. The college has a department of guidance and counseling and a director of studies. It has a literacy program for slum children. It teaches social welfare as a special discipline. It has a student work program, under which about 125 students work in the college to pay for their tuition. It has a small clinic.
The medium of instruction in the college has been Bengali since 1972. Later, English medium was re-opened.
Since 1980s (after the liberation war), Notre Dame College gained reputation of the best institution for higher secondary education in the country. The highest number of perfect GPA holders in national examination (H.S.C.) and the exceptional success of its students in university admission tests bear testimony to this.

Students of the college

Every year Notre Dame College takes around 1250 students through the most competitive college admission process in the country. With the prestige of the highest number of perfect GPA holders in national examination (H.S.C.), Notre Dame College affords to accept students only with exceptional merit and caliber.
