F.D. Arts and Commerce College, Ahmedabad was established in 2005 under the management of F.D. Education Society. The college is situated at Jamalpur, in an area of 3062 Sq.Yard.

The area where the college is located can be considered as prime residential area vastly inhabited by people belonging to middle-class, lower middle-class and even poor people.

It is one of the premier institutions to impart & provide in the field of higher education for the deserving candidates and prove to be a milestone in the part of progress.

The college is affiliated to Gujarat University, Ahmedabad and recognized by the University Grants Commission (UGC) under section 2(f) & 12(B) in August 1998 under Act, 1956.

The students who enroll in this college also belong to the middle-class & lower-class of Muslim society. Being the first Muslim women’s college in Gujarat, the basic intention of our institution has always been to adhere to the needs of the minority Muslim girls and enhance them by providing quality education.

The students enrolling in this college belong to socially, economically and educationally backward classes. They come from orthodox and conservative families where female education is not considered essential for their overall development.

They are marginalized in home and society for being a female without realizations of the fact that the female contributes to the progress of two families – the one she is born into and the one into which she is married.

The institution aims at creating an awareness regarding female education, as it is said: “An educated Mother is equivalent to 100 teachers”. A few senior Lecturers of our college are the members of the B.O.S.(Board of Studies).

The best practices carried out by the college are detailed below:

Academic and personal counseling for the students is ably carried out by the teacher
A Parent Teachers Meeting is organized every year to focus their attention on the performance, progress and regularity/irregularity of the students
Feedback of student’s evaluation of teachers is carried out every year to monitor the teacher’s performance and quality
The college starts with prayer and every student is made to sing the national anthem to make them involve in the national integrity. The endeavor of the institution is to provide students of minority communities who are not exposed to the outer world, with an environment of mental, physical, social and spiritual potentials with an attitude of integrity, hard work, honesty, and tolerance so that the Students can bring out their best
