Ghurye was born on 12 December 1893, at Malvan, in present-day Maharashtra.[2] His early schooling was at the Aryan Education Society's High School, Girgaum, in Bombay, and then at Bahadur Khanji High School, Junagadh, in the princely state of Janugadh.[2] He joined Bahauddin college at Junagarh, in 1912, but moved on to Elphinstone College, Bombay, after a year, and received his B. A. (Sanskrit) and M. A. (Sanskrit) degrees from there.[5] He earned the Bhau Daji prize with his B. A., and the Chancellor's gold medal with his M. A. degree.[5] After completing his M. A., Ghurye received a scholarship for further studies in England, and earned his PhD from Cambridge University in 1922.[2] Ghurye was deeply influenced by W. H. R. Rivers, who was his PhD guide.[6] After Rivers' untimely death in 1922, he completed his thesis under A. C. Haddon.[6]
