    It was good enough to study there.

    College Infrastructure

    Indira Gandhi Open University has its own campus for learning. it is well equipped and furnished in all respect. The classrooms, laboratories, libraries were up to the mark. There was a very good International sports centre there.

    Academics

    I rarely attended the campus for my studies because of my personal problems and health reasons. So I never had my academic curriculum done as per requirements. The negative aspect of my study was that I could'nt gave time to my studies.

    Placements

    The students of open universities are not given proper attention. This also happened with me. But after completing my education I was married to a lawyer and thereafter engaged in a private hospital as a caretaker.

    Value for Money

    I hadn't spent much on my course as it costs very less in an open University. so I was happy when I got my job in private hospital where I was paid properly. Overall I was happy with my performance in education and life.

    Campus Life

    I didn't spend much time in my campus an mostly studied from my living home. This was the reason that I could not much appreciate my campus. However, the teachers, employees and other staff was very good in their behaviour.

    Others

    I don't have much experience of my college because i had not spent much time there even for studies also.

    I am here only for graduation

    College Infrastructure

    Indira Gandhi Open National University does not have good building. Generally students have to go to take classes in the alloted student centre. Centre does not have wifi facilities. Some alloted study centre are not well maintained.

    Academics

    Study material is easy to understand . We don't need to attend the classes regularly as it is not mandatory to attend. Teachers are not in regularly required for study . A good and proper self study can successfully clear the exam.

    Placements

    IGNOU give placement to the students but it is not that good. Package is also not good. There is no clear guidline and procedure for placement drive organised by students as not every student get it properly.

    Value for Money

    IGNOU is open University the graduation degree we get is considered as distance learning course. The course fees is based on it . It is not high the course is we get from IGNOU. Student who can not afford regular course can get degree from IGNOU.

    Campus Life

    There is not any campus life in this University. It is basically the degree for getting degree only. College do not organise any annual function, compitition , society work, that a regular college organise.

    I have good experience

    College Infrastructure

    For those students who want to attend the classes can take their classes in the allocated study centre either it is college or any other institute. Teachers provided proper guidelines and techniques to study and how to clear the exam.

    Academics

    This is not mandatory to attend the classes regularly as it is open University students some students are working and some are not are not staying in the nearest location so IGNOU provide study material and those student who want to school more in the subjects can take previous year notes which will be very beneficial.

    Placements

    Indira Gandhi open University arranges placement drive for the students and it regularly give messages to the students as and when the placement drive happen. However the package is not very high in the IGNOU placement drive.

    Value for Money

    As I am a student from science background the MSc fees is not very high it is up to the study material provided and examination held by the university. It also take practical for the students I think fees is money worthy.

    Campus Life

    The campus life in in IGNOU is not good because there this is open University and this University do not organise any cultural activities for enhancing the curriculum skill of the students. There is no there is no national service scheme and NCC.

    Overall good experience.

    College Infrastructure

    Yes college have necessary infrastructure, facilities and equipment. I suggest that if you want to get enrolled in traditional courses only then choose Indira Gandhi National Open University because it is distance learning.

    Placements

    My course was traditional so I don't have information about placement. I have done B.sc so I don't have any knowledge about placement of Indira Gandhi National Open University. I don't know average salary provided or placement process.

    Indira Gandhi National Open University review

    College Infrastructure

    IGNOU's infrastructure shines through its digital learning platforms, enabling students to access course materials, lectures, and assignments online. The incorporation of technology enhances the learning experience for remote students. The university's study centers across the country provide local support, study materials, and a physical space for student interaction.

    Academics

    Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU), based in New Delhi, has established itself as a pioneering institution in distance education. The university's academic offerings encompass a diverse range of disciplines and levels, catering to a wide spectrum of learners. IGNOU's strength lies in its flexible learning approach, allowing students to pursue education while balancing other commitments.

    Placements

    Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU), headquartered in New Delhi, primarily focuses on distance education and upskilling. However, its approach to placements differs from traditional brick-and-mortar institutions. IGNOU does not offer a centralized placement cell due to its distance learning nature and the diverse profiles of its students, who often have existing job commitments.

    Value for Money

    Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU), located in New Delhi, offers commendable value for money through its flexible and affordable education programs. The university's fee structure is relatively economical compared to many traditional institutions, making higher education accessible to a diverse group of learners, including those with financial constraints.

    Campus Life

    IGNOU's campus life is characterized by its inclusivity, catering to a wide range of learners, including working professionals, homemakers, and those in remote areas. The lack of a centralized physical campus doesn't hinder student engagement, as study centers offer local support, workshops, and seminars. However, the absence of a conventional campus environment could lead to a less immersive college experience for some individuals.

    College Infrastructure

    The institute have all the required infrastructure which caters the need of students. Resources provided by IGNOU are more than sufficient for students to get holistic idea of their course. Space is clean and well maintained.

    Academics

    The study material provided is quite good and the coverage range from basic to advance. Curriculum is updated and covers latest syllabus pattern. Curriculum provides better overview of topics and have interrelation with other subjects.

    Placements

    Since the university provides correspondence courses to student and no regular classes are held. Placement drives doesn't happen at study centre level. It happens in form of Rojgar Mela at IGNOU headquartes in Delhi. So the scope of placement is not that great.

    Academics

    As it was a distance learning. I was studying with my job and the classes used to be conducted during the weekends and the teachers were very helping and supportive. They always help their students by clearing their doubts.

    Have a question related to IGNOU ?

    Hello Priya,

    If you joined IGNOU in July 2023 and are preparing for exams in December 2024, you should submit the assignments for the July 2023 session, as these align with your admission cycle. IGNOU typically requires that you complete and submit assignments before the term-end examination for which you registered. For a one-year course, these assignments will usually be for the current academic year, covering the relevant study material provided to you.

    To confirm, check your course's assignment submission guidelines on the IGNOU website or contact your study center, as some programs may have specific submission timelines.


    I hope this answer helps you. If you have more queries then feel free to share your questions with us we will be happy to assist you.

    Thank you and wishing you all the best for your bright future.


    why COBSE and BIEAP and TSBIE not recognised by IGNOU 10+2 Equivalence Certificate till now?

    Hello Vijay,

    The Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU) issues 10+2 equivalence certificates primarily for individuals who have completed their schooling through non-traditional means, such as open schools or private candidates. While these certificates are recognized by the Council of Boards of School Education in India (COBSE) and the Association of Indian Universities (AIU), they are not applicable to students from traditional boards like the Board of Intermediate Education, Andhra Pradesh (BIEAP), and the Telangana State Board of Intermediate Education (TSBIE).

    The reason for this lack of recognition is that the curricula and assessment methods of BIEAP and TSBIE are distinct from those of open schools. As a result, IGNOU's equivalence certificates do not cover qualifications obtained through these traditional boards. Students from BIEAP or TSBIE seeking equivalence should consult their respective boards or educational authorities for guidance on recognition and equivalence of their qualifications.


    I hope this answer helps you. If you have more queries then feel free to share your questions with us we will be happy to assist you.

    Thank you and wishing you all the best for your bright future.
