The college was soon elevated to the status of a Government College, with 57 enrolled students and Mr. Rogers as its headmaster.

The Bareilly College is housed in the building donated to the college by the Nawab of Rampur and the vicinity is still known as Rampur Garden or Rampur Bagh. A new building was added to it in 1905, whose cornerstone was laid by Sir James John Digges la Touche the then lieutenant governor of the Northern Province, now known as Uttar Pradesh. He named the building as Bareilly College. It now contains a beautiful auditorium at the central vista flanked by a legendary clock tower. The college also has a swimming pool, cafeteria and a residential boarding house by the name Azad Hostel.
