She was home-schooled, and later attended Noble College, graduating with a B.A. in 1898, after studying Sanskrit and Indian literature.

In 1898 after graduating, she was married to Samuel Satthianadhan, a professor at Noble College, and a widower whose first wife, the writer Krupabai, died in 1893.

Following custom, she changed her name to Kamala Satthianadhan. They had several children, and their daughter, Padmini Satthianadhan Sengupta, became a writer as well, whose memoir of her mother, Portrait of an Indian Woman (1965) is one of the primary sources of information on Satthianadhan's life.^[3]
