About Mayo College Boys, Ajmer: India’s Eton
Established in 1875, Mayo College Boys is a premier boarding school situated in Ajmer, Rajasthan. The school was founded by the 6th Earl of Mayo, the Viceroy of India at the time, with the ambitious vision of creating an "Eton of India." It was designed to provide a high-class education to the sons of Indian royalty and noble families, similar to that offered at England’s Eton College.
Mayo’s reputation for excellence in education and holistic development has been cultivated over centuries. From hosting Maharajas and Princes in its early days to now being a world-renowned institution, Mayo College has produced many distinguished alumni, including members of India’s royal families and international dignitaries, such as Sultan Said bin Taimur of Oman, and Sir Hari Singh Bahadur, the last ruler of Jammu and Kashmir.
With its rich history, impressive academic legacy, and dedication to nurturing future leaders, Mayo College continues to uphold its motto, "Let There Be Light," instilling wisdom and knowledge in its students. The college offers exceptional facilities in sports, arts, and academics, from its historic horse-riding traditions to top-notch sporting arenas. The students participate in diverse activities, including a unique annual horseback parade, polo matches, and inter-house competitions, fostering teamwork and leadership.
In addition to maintaining academic excellence, Mayo emphasises extracurricular activities, encouraging students to excel in sports like cricket, athletics, tennis, and squash. Over the years, Mayo has become synonymous with producing well-rounded individuals equipped to take on challenges in both national and global arenas.
