Sahrdaya College of Advanced Studies (SCAS) is an autonomous arts and science college managed by the Catholic Diocese of Irinjalakuda under the Irinjalakuda Diocesan Educational Trust, affiliated to the University of Calicut. Established in 2012, the college is proud to be the first campus in Kerala to offer Professional Programmes in Finance and Accounting alongside regular university programmes.

As an FPSB India Authorised Education Provider, Sahrdaya College enables its BBA and BCom students to pursue the CFP® certification pathway alongside their undergraduate degree — a powerful combination that produces job-ready financial planning graduates. Students can begin Specialist certifications in their undergraduate years and complete CFP® certification shortly after graduation.

Located in Irinjalakuda, Thrissur District — in the heart of Kerala — the college serves students from across Thrissur, Ernakulam, Palakkad, and surrounding districts who prefer an integrated college-campus education over urban coaching institutes.
