    Good Experience so Far!

    College Infrastructure

    The Study centre I have chosen has a nice building, it has all the basic facilities which are required to be present in a college. The classrooms are well maintained, the overall building is clean and neat.

    Academics

    I am studying BA currently. I have opted for this course because I also have a interest in the field of Arts. Our curriculum is updated and is very helpful and full of knowledge it is. On completion of this course, I'm hoping that it should make us ready for getting a job.

    Placements

    The placement record of the University is not that great as much as I have heard till now. From one of my fellow mates, I have heard that his sibling, which also graduated from this University and the same Study centre had been placed for a package of Three Lakh Rupees p.a. Apart from this, I don't have much idea about it's placements.

    Value for Money

    BA costs near around Five Thousand Rupees p.a. I feel that this course is value for money, decently.

    Campus Life

    As I have opted for ODL (Open and Distance Learning) way of completing the course, I don't generally go to the Study centre either but the building is good in which the Study centre is being run. The persons involved in the Study centre are good by nature in my experience.

    You won't get much opportunities here

    College Infrastructure

    Ignou have different colleges some of them ahve great facilities but most of them are only average. Some even don't have wifi or smart boards. In my case, our center ha good spaced library and playground too

    Academics

    I am curreny pursuing MA political science. Classes are conducted every sunday only. Sometimes they dont have classes on sunday too. Quality of teaching is average only . They don't have highly qualified teachers. Curriculum is almost same as delhi University.

    Placements

    there is very less scope for placement opportunities . They have placement cell but it is not that active so students dont get even internship opportunities . Students are placed at 3 lpa only. You have to study very hard on you own to get 5-6 lpa .

    College Infrastructure

    The infrastructure of this university is good, it provides every student a study centre and regional centre. The building and spaces are clean, it maintain hygiene. It also provides wifi facility which is good.

    Academics

    I am pursuing BA Economics Major. It is a distance course. I am a second year student. Economics is a good subject. It also provides study material, which it sends to your address. All it's books are updated.

    Placements

    IGNOU does not provide direct placement to their students. It sometimes provide some information about jobs on your email ID. Here you do not have any job opportunity. This is good for those who wants to prepare for another exams.

    Value for Money

    My course cost is Rs.4900 per year. It's degree is valuable and is worth of money.

    Value for Money University with Very Poor Placements!

    College Infrastructure

    My IGNOU Study Centre is located in Itanagar. It has all the necessary Infrastructure facilities like classrooms, staffroom, washrooms, etc. Our classroom has sufficient no. of benches and desks, board, etc. Everything is kind of well maintained. The classrooms are clean and the whole campus is very hygienic.

    Academics

    I am Masters' student, to be specific student of MA in Education. As it is an open university, I can't comment on the quality of teaching here. Speaking about the curriculum, I think it's updated. The course I am currently pursuing should make it's student job ready.

    Placements

    As far as placements is concerned, I don't have much knowledge about it that's why I am not able to comment on this. Since I have almost no idea about the placements of the University,I am also not commenting on the package offered if someone is placed.

    Value for Money

    For a year, the course fees is around ₹10000/-. And I definitely feel the course is worth the price paid

    Campus Life

    As it is an open university, and I am a student of Distance Course I have not attended any class but one thing I am sure about is the infrastructure of the institute/centre that it's good. All the teaching staff, students and the support staff are all humble and supportive enough. It is located at a very easily reachable location. Also, it has equipments to handle emergency situations.

    Great open university

    College Infrastructure

    No as such good infrastructure. It allots regional centre to students for study centre. These regional centre is situated across Delhi where students used to submit their assignments on these regional centres.

    Academics

    Good academics and also submissions of assignments on regular interval of time. Regular notifications are there for the assignments and also assignments carries equal weightage so it really matters to submit assignments on time.

    Placements

    No such placements provided by the college. You have to get placed on your own. It is like a distance education and you will get the degree. And also regular exams will be there and proper syllabus will be given.

    Value for Money

    In this university so such heavy or expensive cost is there for the education. Usually you can afford education in this university. Return over investment is really good for this university. So you can really go for this university.

    Campus Life

    No as such campus is there. This university only has regional centres across Delhi for students where students can submit their assignments before examinations for which they will get marks and will only get admit cards after a submissions.

    College Infrastructure

    IGNOU's Head Office is located in Maidan Garhi Delhi, and study centres are spread over India providing the ease to earn a degree anywhere in India, my study centre is located in Khallikote College. to solve the querries Regional centres are available in each state.

    IGNOU provides more than 25 degrees for undergraduate, postgraduate, and diploma programmes. Recently, recently various new UGC-approved courses have also been added to the curriculum. Physical classes are not being held after the COVID period.

    The institution helps students by emailing them information about job fairs and other vacancy-related news, even though there is no campus placement facility. All job-related information is updated on IGNOU's official website.

    Best open distance college

    Verified Review
    College Infrastructure

    IGNOU has study centres all over the nation, and the one assigned to me has an extremely lovely campus in a prime location. Air conditioning is available in the classrooms, and the labs are highly sophisticated and fully furnished.

    Academics

    The college used to hold classes for the students in person before the COVID period, but currently the classes are offered online. However, my course's assigned teachers are really helpful. Students can attend class with ease because of the online teaching mode. The students are also given study materials by the college.

    Placements

    Being an open university, IGNOU offers opportunities for distance learning. Because there is not a specific campus, campus hiring is not feasible, and the majority of students are already working. However, to handle the situation, IGNOU does offer resources such as job fair spaces and other resources to help students find employment.

    Value for Money

    The masters degree cost me around 20 thousand rupees for two years which included the study material fee, and the exam fee is 200rs for each subject.

    Campus Life

    I only visit the campus to take exams, so I do not really experience campus life as I study remotely.

    College Infrastructure

    Ignou provides a vast infrastructure which has it's regional centers and many government college as study centre, classrooms has all the necessary requirements like smart boards, projectors, fans and comfortable benches, no hostel facility, canteen food is good, big and informative library. Medical facilities are not available in our college.

    Academics

    I am doing B.com from ignou as it gives me time and degree as i can do other course while doing it, teachers are supportive and do connect with us over a call or online. Curriculum is old and same, you have to acquire more skills to be industry ready.

    Placements

    As an open university, it doesn't provide placements for students, but they organised workshops time to time which gives us idea of getting jobs, and one has to got internships or jobs by their own only, last year one of my senior got job of 4LPA by their own.

    Good experience to put a review here.

    College Infrastructure

    IGNOU doesn't have a centralized campus of its own. Being a university for open learning, IGNOU collabs with different other centres for exams and other processes. For practicals also, it doesn't have its own structure.

    Academics

    In academics, regular study material is provided to the students who do the online education from this university. The quality of teaching by the faculty on IGNOU's platform is not good enough. The study material is also not up to the mark.

    Placements

    Most of the students who take courses in IGNOU are the students who prepare for government exams such as SSC, CGL,etc. Usually students don't take admissions here for placements but rather they just want the degree.

    Value for Money

    People who want to pursue any degree from distance learning can have a good advantage taking admission here at IGNOU. The courses are very low cost and exams are very easy which students can pass studying the online material provided by the university.

    Campus Life

    Campus of IGNOU is not of its own. IGNOU is spread as an open learning institution where mostly the local people take admission. The centres of IGNOU are average and provide some facilities to the students visiting there for examinations and special classes.

    Good for open education.

    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.
