Valluvar is a great Tamil Poet and Philosopher. The name itself is an incredible part of our identity for more than 75 years.

The distinctiveness of Valluvar College is its vision of preaching Thirukkural to our students as providing guidance of human goodness and betterment in life. Our Institution believes that knowledge should be supported by ethical values which are necessary to live in harmony with society and environment.
As the holy book of Thirukkural carries the principles which are essential to mold a good human being. With this intention the founder of our Institution established the Valluvar College and also provides free education to those students who narrate 1330 Thirukkural Couplets.

The day in College starts with the holy words of Thirukkural with music given to students that they should get the blessings of god through prayer song. The sacred words of Thirukkural are displayed in our college buses and class rooms with meanings which initiate the students to learn the ethics and moral value of life.
