People living in and around Samsi donated money and land to establish the college. In 1968 the college formally opened, with classes at Samsi Agril High School. Within two years of its establishment, the college was able to construct its own temporary mud-building at the present site in the Kandaran area. There are two well-protected boys' and girls' hostels for the students who live some distance away.
