“The Peer Team has no hesitation in listing Mar Ivanios College as a leading institution and being benchmarked for its organisational setup, its constituencies working as a family and its efforts to promote `character’ in students through emphasis on values and discipline at every turn..... Remarkable features of the college include (1) a strong sense of discipline among staff and students of the college and (2) the nurturing of a culture of togetherness among management, teachers, non-teaching staff, students, guardians and alumni.... It is eminently suited to being conferred ‘Autonomous Institution’ status. One day we hope it can become a ‘deemed-to -be-University.’ Such is its reputation that a student of `Mar Ivanios’ is considered very lucky as there are plenty of opportunities for personality development and all round growth.... In a nutshell, we, the Peer Team of NAAC, have no hesitation to state that this is one of the bestrun institutions not only in Kerala, but in the country.”

The College has become a role model by setting up several healthy practices.

The familial fellowship that welds the community together is a remarkable aspect of the ambience prevalent on the campus.

The sensitivity to total quality management evident in the overall organisation of work, study and life style is healthy.

 Ideally located and shaped by a far reaching vision, Mar Ivanios College has admirably acquitted its role as a dispenser of quality education in the State of Kerala. It has contributed to the State and the Nation’s
