Bishop Abraham Memorial College started its dedicated service to the cause of higher education on 28th June 1965.  The college is named after Bishop Abraham Mar Thoma Metropolitan, the saintly soul who dedicated his life for spreading the values of the Kingdom of God. It is owned by the Bishop Abraham Memorial Trust Association registered under the Travancore-Cochin Literary, Scientific and Charitable Societies Act (Act XII of 1955 as S No. 3 of 1965).

Far from the maddening crowd of towns and cities, still unpolluted with the infiltration of the vile and vicious influences, the B. A. M. College is perched upon a lovely hill. In the near distance twists and flows river Manimala, a silver stream in an abundant sea of undulating green. The peaceful and rural atmosphere has been a stage setter for the unique formation that we stand for. We have been insisting on the integral development of the person through education. While giving a free rein of thought, we make the students understand eternal truths which are far beyond the flights and falls of intellect.

The college is eligible to get financial assistance from UGC as it is included under Section 2(f) and is declared fit to receive central assistance under Section 12 (B) of UGC Act, 1956 as per approved pattern of assistance under various schemes. The college is receiving infrastructure grant under RUSA 2.0 scheme. Currently, we are in the third cycle of accreditation by NAAC.
