History

Historically, the beginning of the Government Graduate College Chakwal almost corresponds with the emergence of Pakistan. The locals always aspired to have an institution of higher learning. Eventually, it fell to Raja Sarfaraz Khan, the member of the Punjab Assembly, who delivered precious land in addition to a handsome amount and became the Sir Syed of the Chakwal.

The college was inaugurated in 1949 in the present edifice. Khan Fazal Muhammad was its first principal. The faculty at that time comprised 14 professors teaching almost 300 students. Now there are many teachers and more than 2,500 students. In 1989, students of the college launched a movement for upgradation of the college to the Graduate Level and consequently MA/Msc in Physics, English and Mathematics were introduced in the same year.

In 2010, BS (Hons) 4-year programme in collaboration with University of Gujrat was started.
