It admits other students, irrespective of their caste, creed and state. Their religious feelings and freedom of conscience are respected. The history of Holy Cross College dates back to 1901, when Mother Sophie set up a primary school with only a room or two and a handful of girls as her students. From its humble beginning, it has grown steadily, attained the status of a college in 1923, became a second-grade college in 1928 and post graduate college in 1964. In recognition of its service to the cause of women's education for over eight decades, the college was granted autonomous status from June 1987 by the Bharathidasan University. The College was accredited by NAAC (National Assessment and Accreditation Council) in 1999 with FIVE STARS. It volunteered to be reaccredited by NAAC in October 2004 and was reaccredited with "A" grade, (88.5%) in May 2005.
