==History==<br />
The College was established in 1950.<ref name=UGC/> They shared the premises of Manimala Girls' High School from their foundation until 1962 when they moved to their own building.<ref>{{cite news |url=http://agc.org.in/ |title=Asansol Girls' College |publisher=Asansol Girls' College |accessdate=2 January 2013}}</ref> For that reason, it became known by local people as Manimala College, but Asansol Girls' College was always the official name. On Establishment Day, a procession goes from the College to Manimala Girls' High School to show respect for its origins.<br />
<br />
Initially, the College was affiliated to the [[University of Calcutta]]. After Burdwan University started it became affiliated with that university. From 24 June 2015, the college has been affiliated to Asansol's Kazi Nazrul University.<br />
