Founded by Sir Auckland Colvin in the year 1892, Colvin Taluqdars' College was established exclusively for the wards of Taluqdars' of Oudh. It was like this till 1933. After India got independence, the institution was opened for all. Now the college is affiliate to ISC and regarded as one among the prestigious academic institutions in India itself.
