The Rajkumar College [also known as RKC], Rajkot, is one of the oldest and elite K-12 institution in India today. RKC has a 26 acre campus located in the heart of Rajkot city.
The foundation stone was laid in 1868 and the college was formally opened in 1870. The college has a flourishing history of 136 years and has had students from all walks of life. The college was founded for the education of the Princely order by the Princes and Chiefs of Kathiawad for the education of their sons and relations.
In 1938, on the initiatives of its founding members, the College became a Public School (private school in Western terms) – the first such college to do so. The college itself is also a founding member of the Indian Public Schools Conference.
