    Ignou does not provide good infrastructure. Colleges are allocated to you based on your locality. Some colleges has average facilities, some have below par. My study center has average sized classrooms but are not maintained, no wifi and a small playground.

    Academics

    In Ignou ,teachers are least concerned about your education. I am pursuing MA (pol science). Classes are held rarely that too without prior notice. Some teachers are rude and fail to clear your doubts. Curriculum is okay okay.

    Placements

    You would not get much placement opportunities in ignou. In MA, you can get some internship or placement but not from renowned company. Highest package last year was 4 lpa only. You have to study hard and grab job on your own.

    The infrastructure is decent and ambience is very good. There is no wifi facility. Actually this is non attending college so if anyone wants to get any degree without attending college...then they can join any course from side.

    Academics

    Academic is good in this college . Exam is conducted in well disciplined manner. Teachers are well educated and knowledgeable having doctorate degree. They are always ready to teach and help their students.

    Placements

    As I'm pursuing bachelor's of commerce so there is no placement available for us in this college. No big company visit our college for placement purpose. There is no workshop and internships provided by them.

    College Infrastructure

    Infrastructure of the ignou is very bad. There is no wifi facility and even there is no sports facilities for students. There is minimal medical facilities if someone falls sick. Having a library depends on your center, but they rarely issue books.

    Academics

    Teachers are not helpful at all. I completed my mcom in 2019. They never used to give prior message to students for class. 3-4 times a month ,we used to have classes. They never not interested in teaching us. Curriculum is same as du sol.

    Placements

    You will not get any placement opportunities here. At our time only 5 % student got placed. You will only get mediocre profile. Average package offered here is 2.5 to 3 lpa. You have to study on your own to secure a good job.

    College Infrastructure

    IGNOU classrooms are suspicious and comfortable. It also have projectors and audio visual equipments. There maybe complaints about poor ventilation and less well equipped centres. They have library resources with digital access.

    Academics

    Ignou relies on self instructional print and digital materials. It also provide student support services throughout the academic year. Content is amazing for self paced learning. Assessment methods are fair and transparent. Faculty are very supportive.

    Infrastructure include various regional centers and study centers.my study center had basic facilities like drinking water ,good clean classrooms. But if you opt for books they don't provide them on time. We had a library last year

    Academics

    You totally have to study on your own. We were not even updated about our classes . We used to have only 2-3 classes per month. You won't get any important topics or last year question from teachers. Even result is declared late.

    Placements

    Placements are totally different from the regular colleges. Negligible students get placed. But it is better than sol. One student I know got 4 lpa last year. But for internships and placements ,you have to find them on your own.

    the campus life of the colleges which comes under the IGNOU

    College Infrastructure

    My experience in IGNOU is very good. The infrastructure and facility provided in the college are pretty good. Classroom and library are the great place to read and gain knowledge. The infrastructure of the college was comparatively good.

    Academics

    Overall , the academics of IGNOU are good. This university is just for good working professional and for those student who do not want to go to college for study, there is no placement in this university.

    Placements

    As per online sources, the IGNOU placement rate varies between 70% and 80%. IGNOU MBA graduates are working with some of the leading companies including Deloitte, ITC, Samsung, Reliance, among others. Based on skills, IGNOU MBA students can expect a salary after graduation between INR 5 LPA and INR 15 LPA.

    Value for Money

    It is best for the value of money with good infrastructure and highly qualified teachers. Placements: About 60% of the students in our course got placed. The highest salary package offered was 3.5 LPA, and the average salary package was 2.5 LPA, and the lowest salary package offered was 1.8 LPA.

    Campus Life

    Classrooms are fine but the labs weren't provided for us. As it's an open college and no hostels are there. We have a decent canteen on the main campus but not in ... IGNOU is a good college if you are preparing for some other exams.

    Have a question related to IGNOU ?

    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.

    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.

    Students seeking more information on credit transfer or distance learning can refer to Careers360 .

    I enrolled in BCA, 2018 batch from IGNOU. Due to Covid and Financial problem I wasn't able to complete my graduation and out of 6 semester my 5 semester are completed. Now from 2024 IGNOU has discontinued the previous BCA syllabus. I am looking for a university which can allow to transfer my credit.

    Hello Aniket,

    If you've completed 5 out of 6 semesters of your BCA from IGNOU and are looking for a university that will allow you to transfer your credits, there are a few options to explore. Many universities have credit transfer policies, but they vary depending on the institution. Here's what you can do:

    1. Contact IGNOU: Reach out to IGNOU's student support or academic office to check if they offer any assistance in transitioning students to a new syllabus or credit transfer options to another university.

    2. Research Universities with Credit Transfer Policies: Some universities in India and abroad accept credit transfers from other universities, especially if the programs are recognized by UGC. Look for institutions that offer BCA or similar undergraduate programs and check their transfer policies.

    3. Distance Learning Universities: Universities like Amity University, Sikkim Manipal University, or Manipal University might have flexible credit transfer policies for students from institutions like IGNOU.

    4. Contact Universities Directly: Contact admissions offices at universities where you're interested in continuing your BCA. Explain your situation and ask for details on their credit transfer process.

    5. Credit Transfer Requirements: Be ready to provide syllabi, transcripts, and other relevant documents that demonstrate what you’ve already completed at IGNOU. The university will evaluate the courses you've taken and determine which credits can be transferred.

    6. Check for Online Options: Some online universities might have more flexibility in transferring credits, as they cater to a broader range of students from different institutions.

    Each university will have its own specific criteria, so it's important to get in touch with the admissions or academic offices for detailed guidance on the process.
