What orchid International college does

Orchid International College (OIC) is a private, for-profit undergraduate educational institution headquartered at Bijay Chowk, Gaushala, Kathmandu, Nepal, founded in 2010 and affiliated with Tribhuvan University (TU). It delivers six TU-affiliated four-year programs — BSc CSIT, BITM, BCA, BBM, BBS, and BSW — supplemented by MBA and BBA offerings, and serves Nepali students who have completed higher secondary (+2) education. The institution serves a base of 1,000+ students drawn from Kathmandu and other major Nepali cities such as Pokhara, Biratnagar, and Dharan.

The college operates a single physical campus equipped with computer labs, digital logic/electronics labs, and a library, and uses an online admission portal, phone/email inquiry channels, and active Facebook, YouTube, and Instagram accounts to recruit students. Technology infrastructure is standard for a teaching institution; the technology differentiation sits in adjunct offerings rather than the core campus — a Mini Research Grant Program (MRGP), the Orchid Insights open-access peer-reviewed journal, an Orchid Hackathon 2026 event series, and industry-aligned professional training courses (MERN Stack, Spring/Hibernate). Teaching is delivered by 63+ full-time faculty plus visiting and R&D members with stated 20+ years of industry experience, and the college maintains placement tie-ups with employers including Capital One, Verizon, Leapfrog Technology, NMB Bank, Creospan Inc., and others.

The business model is tuition-driven and direct-to-consumer: students apply online or via phone, sit TU-conducted entrance examinations (CMAT for management, IOST for CSIT), and pay program-specific fees that are not publicly disclosed but are positioned as affordable versus other Kathmandu private colleges, with scholarships offered to meritorious students. The college has no disclosed external investors, no subsidiaries, no public funding rounds, and no M&A activity in the input data. Revenue figures are not publicly reported; pricing is not standardized across programs and is not disclosed on the public website.
