Chandradhari Mithila Mahavidyalaya, Darbhanga (Bihar), considered the Pride of Mithila is one of the ancient seats of learning not only in Bihar but in the entire country. As a premier institution, the College was established in 1938 and it subsequently became a constituent unit of Lalit Narayan Mithila University. It was founded under the auspices of a Citizen's Committee consisting of distinguished dignitaries of Darbhanga who felt the need of imparting higher education along the Western model while retaining Oriental flavour in the far-flung and remote areas of North Bihar. Originally named Mithila College, it started functioning in a private building at Laheriasarai and was later shifted to Oval Market, Darbhanga near the Tower which houses the C.M. Science College, Darbhanga at present. The mission of turning a dream into reality could be fulfilled due to the tireless and unforgettable efforts of Pandit Gangadhar Mishra, a senior advocate and resident of Saurath (Madhubani) and it is in deference to his pioneering endeavour and dedication that the college campus is known as Gangadhar Niketan.

The college got its present name C.M. College because of the munificence of the Late Chandradhari Babu of Ranti Deorhi (Madhubani). Surviving the constraints of space and financial handicaps, the college got a real lease of life because of the concerted efforts of the late Dr S. K. Sinha, the first C. M. of Bihar and two distinguished citizens of Darbhanga, Late Kunwar Kalyan Lal and the then Vice-Chairman of Darbhanga Municipality, Late Surendra Prasad Sinha. As a result of a long-term deal between the Municipality and the Government, the College could function and expand without legal encumbrance. Very soon, in the early fifties, the college began to impart Degree Education in four faculties - Arts, Science, Commerce and Law. In 1952, the college was separated from Old Patna University and got affiliated with the newly formed Bihar University. The first permanent Principal of the college Dr B.M.K. Sinha, a professor of English, became the first Registrar of Bihar University, Muzaffarpur.
