Welcome to College CampusSt.Joseph\'s College is a legacy of the 19th century, handed down to us by the venerable fathers of the Society of the Foreign Mission of Paris. Its nucleus was the St.Joseph\'s High School which was started in 1868 A.D. This School was elevated into a college in 1884 A.D.through the efforts of Father Tarbes and was affiliated to the University of Madras.The District - Gazetteer,South Arcot District has recorded that the prime educational institution and the only college in the District in the 19th century was the St.Joseph\'s College.It once again became a High School in 1909 due to the financial and other constraints. Since then there have been several attempts to revitalize the college. The dream became a reality when the college was reborn as the St.Joseph\'s College of Arts and Science in 1991. The college was inaugurated on 11th October 1991, at a stately function presided over by His Excellency Bhishma Narain Singh, the then Governor of Tamil Nadu.The College bears the Motto "Labor Omnia Vincit", Work Conquers All. With an abiding faith in the efficasy of her labours, the college strives hard to impart value based education aimed at the formation of the integral personality of the student.With the willing co-operation of partners and the whole hearted support of the public, the College hopes to march triumphantly in its noble endeavour.
