From Hamirpur to a home in Chandigarh

Hamirpur is one of the most over-represented districts in our hostel. Families from Tauni Devi, Bhota, Nadaun, and Sujanpur drive down National Highway 503 every September, every November, every January — and have done so for over thirty years. The road from Hamirpur to Chandigarh takes four to five hours; in our experience, it is the right distance: close enough for the family to visit on a long weekend, far enough that the school week is uninterrupted.

Why Hamirpur families choose Chandigarh

Hamirpur is a district that punches well above its weight in education outcomes — but the senior secondary options in CBSE are limited within the district. Most families looking for a top-quartile English-medium school with strong board-prep and college-entrance coaching look towards Chandigarh, and once they look at Chandigarh, the question becomes which residential option keeps the daughter safest while she studies.

What we offer specifically to Hamirpur families

For Hamirpur families specifically, three things matter: continuity of the food culture (the mess serves kadhi, sabzi, parathas, dal-roti that a daughter from Tauni Devi or Bhota will recognise), Hindi-friendly daily life on the floor (most of our wardens and a clear majority of our floor-mates from Hamirpur use Hindi as the working language even when the academic medium is English), and a transparent fee structure (the hostel fee is the hostel fee — there are no surprise charges that arrive a month into the term).

Getting to the hostel from Hamirpur

The drive from Hamirpur takes four to five hours via NH-503 through Una. ISBT Chandigarh has a Hamirpur–Chandigarh HRTC service that connects daily; many of our parents send their daughters by bus when the family has been before. For the first visit, we recommend a Saturday morning departure from Hamirpur and a lunch slot on campus.
