Banasthali Vidyapith is a unique, fully residential womens'  university, which offers an integrated system extending from the primary to the Ph.D. level.

The origin of Banasthali is unique in more ways than one. The Vidyapith owes its existence neither to the zeal of an educationist, nor to that of a social reformer. It is also not a creation of Philanthropist's purse. It has arisen like the fabled phoenix from the ashes of a blossoming flower Shanta bai, which had withered before its hour. It is a spontaneous filling up of the vacuum caused by Shantabai's death. Here love, eternal love, has been the fountain head of all the thinking and action and this spirit has been the motivating force.

It was on October 6, 1935 that Smt. Ratan Shastri and Pandit Hiralal Shastri founded Banasthali Vidyapith to fill up the vacuum caused by the sudden death of their highly talented and promising daughter Shantabai. They had high expectations that she would work for women's cause when she would grow up.

Over these seventy years the Vidyapith has developed into a National Centre for women's education. Banasthali's educational programme aims at an all-round development of the student's personality. To achieve its objective of 'synthesis of spiritual values and scientific achievements of the East and the West', it has evolved Five-fold Educational Programme (Panchmukhi Shiksha) comprising of the following aspects : (i) Physical, (ii) Practical, (iii) Aesthetic, (iv) Moral and (v) Intellectual. This way the students develope an integrated and balanced personality.

Banasthali Vidyapith is one of the five universities in India meant exclusively for Women. This institute has made full use of the autonomy provided under the deemed university status and has innovatively restructured the courses offered which include subjects ranging from the traditional areas to the emerging areas to the highest level of research (leading to the doctoral degree). Recently Banasthali Vidyapith has been accredited by National Assessment and Accreditation Council (NAAC) with 'A' Grade (Five star Rating). Banasthali Vidyapith is a recipient of SANTBAL Award in the year 2000 for the services in the field of all round education of women.

The rural ambience is very conducive for promoting the ideology of simple living, and for imbibing and internalizing the values of self-reliance and tolerance. Following the philosophy of the balance Panchmukhi system of education the institute provides ample opportunities for integrated development of the personality. The stress on the positive aspects of the Indian heritage has resulted in a climate which has contributed significantly in the upliftment of women to take on leadership roles with confidence.
