The college was founded in 1991 and has two other campuses. The college has a whole plan ready for renovation and expansion. As part of this renovation plan, a gymnasium, baseball field and a soccer field is to be added to the main campus. And since the student strength is also expected to grow as a result of these renovations, the main campus would be doubled in size as well.
