Junior College History and Inspiration

...

Mount Carmel Junior College is an offshoot of the Sisters of the Apostolic Carmel, which has a specific goal in view. The Junior College has been started to respond to the growing need for Catholic education. Due to the demands of parents, and the present need to upgrade the High School, the foundation for the Junior College was laid on Nov 19, 2009 and classes commenced with effect from July 2013. The college is named after Our Lady of Mount Carmel, from whom our students will learn openness to God's all sufficing love that will enable them to accept life's situations in a deep spirit of faith. The College is devoted to the advancement of Education in all its aspects, primarily for the benefit of Catholic women and children, and students from all sections of society. Mount Carmel Junior College is a Private unaided Religious Minority Institution.

It started as an English medium school at Nana Peth in 1943 to provide Catholic girls with sound religious and value-based education. The college is open to girls irrespective of religion, caste, race or status. Religious freedom is assured, and students who are admitted, are expected to be loyal to the institution, and responsible young women.

The Apostolic Carmel Sisters are known for their services in the field of formal education in India and abroad. They manage schools and colleges, with degree colleges in Mangalore, Goa, Kozhikode and Patna, and now in recent years, several Junior colleges as well.

Our Vision For Education As Apostolic Carmelites

Called to live in God's presence and sharing in His Mission to transform the world in love, we, the Sisters of the Apostolic Carmel, respond like Mary and our Foundress, Venerable Mother Veronica, by our lives of Consecration. We strive to draw out the full potential of our students and especially of the women we educate.

We foster in them the rich values and cultural heritage so that they are urged to respond to life's challenges with the joy and courage that is rooted in prayer and committed to serve the society as responsible citizens.

A special thrust of our educational effort is an active concern for the formation of an authentic sense of mission to our country and the world.
