I was in BCA,2018 batch in IGNOU. Due to Covid and fin. issue only 5/6 semester is completed. Now in 2024 IGNOU discontinued old BCA syllab. and credit transfer is also not allow. Only for 1 incomplete semester my degree is at stake. I am looking for any institute who can allow me credit transfer.

You can transfer your credits to IGNOU courses which are equivalent to your course But if you are thinking to transfer your credits from IGNOU to another college then the college should be affiliated to IGNOU but if it is not affiliated to IGNOU you can't hop to another college directly in second year.

Its a harsh reality but it is almost not possible to get admission in last year of BCA in any other colleges.you can apply to private colleges which has vacant seats if they allow you then only you can take admission in new college.

Hope it helps!!

Hello,

Your situation highlights the challenges of transitioning between programs due to curriculum changes. Here are some potential solutions:

1. Check with IGNOU: Contact IGNOU’s Student Support or Regional Center to inquire about any exceptional provisions for students in your situation, such as completing the last semester under special approval.
2. Institutes that accept credit transfer : Unfortunately, most Indian universities, including IGNOU, are not very liberal with credit transfer from discontinued syllabi. However, some private universities may consider it. Reach out to institutions like Amity University Online, Sikkim Manipal University, or Symbiosis Centre for Distance Learning, as they may evaluate your credits.
3. If there is no institute that takes the credit transfer, consider fresh admission in IGNOU's new BCA course . You might have to take some courses again, but a good part of your study can overlap.
4. Upgrade Skills : Instead, complete certifications such as IT or coding. This can be Python, Data Science, or Cloud Computing, for example, which will improve employability without a formal degree.

Consult IGNOU or other distance learning institutions for detailed advice.
