Dodla Kousalyamma Government College for Women, Nellore

The college has been patronized by the public for the obvious reason that their wards can be safely left in a women’s college that has very good hostel accommodations. The hostel which began in a big hall with mass accommodation has grown into an expansive complex of 5 blocks with 83 rooms, with 2 dining halls, reading, and recreation rooms. Women students of Vikrama Simhapuri University are also accommodated at the request of the university authorities. At present, it houses nearly 550 students, and at one time when it was a composite college as many as 1124 students, in 2005-06, shared the accommodation.
