Ewing Christian College
   
 
Allahabad, India
   
         
       
   
     
  History: Ewing Christian College grew out of the purchase of a school by the Presbyterian Church USA and was established as a college in 1902 by Dr. Arthur H. Ewing, a Presbyterian missionary in Allahabad. The College has grown consistently and steadily over the years.  
           
  Profile: Currently the College has over 2500 students enrolled in 3-year degree programs and in 1.5 year diploma courses. Ewing was the second college out of 450 in the state to have been given autonomous status. The revised academic programs, the introduction of job-oriented courses, compulsory attendance, the continuous evaluation of students and a host of extra-curricular activities have given Ewing students an edge over others in securing admission to professional schools and jobs. The College has also better equipped students for competitive examinations and interviews.  
           
  Mission: The mission of Ewing Christian College is to make higher education relevant to the needs of the community; to shift the emphasis from exam-oriented teaching to relevant learning and skills acquisition in the context of a Christian community; to change the rigidity of Indian higher education by granting autonomy to the college, allowing freedom for innovation and by providing a minority religious character to the institution.  
           
  Church Relationship: Church of North India
