About National PU College Rajajinagar
National PU College Rajajinagar extends the National Group of Colleges' South Bangalore presence into West Bangalore. Established in 1984, the Rajajinagar campus is affiliated with the Department of Pre-University Education, Karnataka, and has built four decades of local recognition in one of West Bangalore's most established residential neighbourhoods. Rajajinagar — known for its old-Bangalore character, BMTC connectivity, and proximity to Malleshwaram and Vijayanagar — provides a practical, well-connected campus location for students from the western parts of the city.
The National Group's multi-campus model means the Rajajinagar campus operates with the same academic framework as the group's South Bangalore campuses, while serving a distinct student population from West and North-West Bangalore.
