    College was quite good.

    College Infrastructure

    The infrastructure is pretty good as it is government affiliates and it is delighted with the greenery because many colleges are only from delhi university. There are many blocks in every college and each dealing with different functions like students block, library, canteen, etc. All the basic facilities are available in the college like the water cooler, electricity, etc. The classroom and labs are also very good and well maintained. The library has all the necessary books and magazines. The canteen are hygienic and clean.

    Academics

    I am pursuing M.COM from IGNOU. The academics are good. Teachers are always ready to help, they are Always ready to support you whenever you need help. Though we have to go only twice a week. Professors will solve your all doubts regarding studies. Its nice to be here. As it is open learning you can study whenever you want and ignou also provides us online books and previous year question papers.

    Placements

    As IGNOU is an open university. Students can pursue all undergraduate and postgraduate course from anywhere in the country and IGNOU provides valuable degree but there are no placements or with low packages. We have to find internships by our own. But it is pretty much valuable and is recognised by all big companies if anyone wants to pursue any employment or job.

    Overall I have a good experience here.

    College Infrastructure

    My IGNOU regional and study Centre is in Patna. It has a good infrastructure. All necessary infrastructure and facilities are available for students there. All classrooms are neat and clean. Environment is pleasant. Just awesome.

    Academics

    I am a 1st year student of MBA (Human Resource Management). All the study materials provided by them are updated. They also provide facility of online classes on their website. You can also join the classes offline if you want to.

    Placements

    As it is a distance course, placement rate is not that good. There is a placement cell, and gives notification regarding campus placement online in placement section of official website. You can register yourself in placement portal, and they will give you notification about it in your email. MBA graduate average package is around 2-3 lakhs.

    Value for Money

    My course per year fee is around Rs30000, with additional reregistration fee of Rs.200 per paper. You have to pay fee semester wise. MBA from IGNOU is worth the money, as it is recognized by UGC. And the degree is valid everywhere.

    Campus Life

    I almost have negligible campus life, as it is an open University. The location is easily accessible and is safe.

    Others

    The course is affordable and valuable, so i recommend to participate in the courses.

    Good college for those who want to pursue distance degree

    College Infrastructure

    Good college to pursue distance degree. Online classes are regularly conducted to help students learn their course properly. Regional centres provide good support to students when it comes to resolving queries relating to course. Hassle free exams and study centre across all over india can be main attraction to study with ignou.

    Academics

    Regular classes, various assignments and competitions such as business case competitions startup competitions conducted by college in association with government is best way to learn competitiveness.

    Placements

    Placement is not provided by college as per my knowledge. This is good college for learning purpose only. For jobs and placements students will have to try on their own. It is best when graduation and post graduation are secondary courses for you.

    Value for Money

    Full course could be done within 10000 rupees. Yes it is value for money as they are providing online classes assignment etc which will help student to learn and ultimately clear exams. Fees is less as compared to other colleges.

    Campus Life

    No campus life i am enjoying because i m pursuing distance degree from this college but college also offer regular degree might be campus life is available with those courses. Dont have full knowledge about same.

    Academics

    Good faculty and study material but bad placement there is no campus placement available students need to proactively seek intership and part. Time jobs to gain practical experience and make professional connections.

    Placements

    Yes, IGNOU students get placement. However, the percentage of students getting direct placements through IGNOU campus placement cell is less. Importantly, IGNOU has a strong alumni network and through gaining add-on skills, students get jobs through off-campus drives.

    Value for Money

    It over All Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU), located in New Delhi, offers commendable value for money through its flexible and affordable education programs. experience are good

    Great thing to remember your college

    Verified Review
    College Infrastructure

    It is an open university so it runs with the network of regional centres and study centres under it. The study centre alloted to me was having decent basic facilities, with appropriate spacious clean classrooms, big extensive library, labs and a good canteen. My time it hadn't been equipped with wifi or smart boards. Today this dearth is also been fulfilled. Now it has quite every basic facility.

    Academics

    IGNOU has the best educational standards. It provide significant quality education to every student want to study even from remote setting in the country. It has a well formulated and structured syllabus or curriculum designed effectively on the basis of desired educational outcomes and competitive challenges.

    Placements

    Though the IGNOU claim to have a dedicated placement cell but I was never approached for any placement drive being conducted to engage with the employment opportunities and recruitment options. I think this is the only thing in which IGNOU lags behind other institutions. It should also strive to provide placement possibilities to the enrolled students

    Value for Money

    The value of money is decently being provided as the fee charged for every course is nearly nominal which exhibits the quality education at cheaper rates ensuring to reach to every student regardless of his economic or social status. He or she can study the best syllabus and obtain a degree even residing remotely and coordinating with the challenges if any. Basically you get the worth of enrolling in this institution. You can study side by side even if you work in the day hours.

    Campus Life

    Ignou has minimal or no engagement with other students of the university as it is an open distance learning platform. Interaction with teachers can be easily done by visiting your study centre. Even for some courses which need physical practical learning we have to attend classes in person. Support staff is also responsive. But the student's visit to the study centre is not frequent so the need to have a good campus life is not mandatory.

    Others

    I loved to read great books which they provided to me under my course helped me getting a good knowledge of rural development.

    College was good in infrastructure. It was open university so doesn't need much infrastructure. It was clean. All the facilities are provided. There was a library of around 1400 books. It was spacious and clean.

    Academics

    Teachers were well educated. They were PHD in their subjects. Practical knowledge was given of every subject using live examples and live projects. They were a bit less cooperative. It was a mixture of both good and bad.

    Placements

    There was no placements given by college. There were no placement committee in college. Average package was 1.5 lakh Per annum and median package was 1.5 lakh. Highest package was 3 lakh. There were very less opportunity for placements.

    College Infrastructure

    As I am in open school so college infrastructure is doesn't matter for us but I visited the main campus at Delhi I found it was good more then our expectations the collage has very green campus and very clean campus.

    Academics

    AS the open University the University offer many certificates and degree course with high valueable content the books they provide is quite awesome with Genuine content easy to understand and use easy and simple words.

    Placements

    The placement in IGNOU is not good because as a open University they can only offer degree course so the placement cell not seems to intrested for placing their students but as the content they provide candidate can easily placed in any firms.

    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.
