Hello,

Since you've tagged IGNOU, so I'm assuming you're asking this question in reference to it. See, attending classes are not mandatory, classes are held only to help students with their studies as distance education is mostly done on self efforts,hence the aid is provided, it's your call entirely to attend the classes,it's not in anyway going to impact your appearing for term end exams,however if you're pursuing PG in any course that requires practicals then it's important to attend the classes.

Hey,
The attendance criteria is different for different courses. If your course is only theoretical, then there is no compulsion for attendance. You can only visit the study centre to submit your application forms or assignments which is mandatory to appear for the exam. However, if your course requires practicals,then you need to have a required attendance.
Hope this helps.
Good luck.
