Placement Experience

According to my experience, I am eligible for internships/ placements after 1st year. I got an option for Training which includes Internships and placements in different companies like Insurance Dekho, Car Dekho, Air India SATS, APTARA etc. These companies offer jobs in many fields like, Health and Life Insurance Advisors, Tele Sales, Data Entry Operators, Customer Executives, Copy Editors and Technical Writer.

Fees and Financial Aid

Let's talk about the fee structure of the IGNOU BA (History) Program. There are no Tuition Fees and The fees submitted on yearly basis. The following are the Fees Structure (In Rupees): Ignou Yearly Fees: 4400 Ignou Exam Fees: 1600 (200 per Subject)

Campus Life

1

In my experience, I didn't attend any social events, technical events. They have a library in the main centre where student can get their books for their studies. There is no group social groups clubs in Ignou, That's why IGNOU college is not for everyone, It's for those who want distance learning.

Admission

This college was my second priority. I had taken the CUET Exam after completing my 12th. I got good scores on the CUET exam but it wasn't enough to get admission to good colleges after that I searched for new choices then I found IGNOU. It is a great college for people who want to do distance learning. It offers various types of courses with affordable fee structures. Ignou tied up with various central and private colleges to provide students with a better environment. It has the best faculties for various courses, For admission to Ignou, you have to fill registration form with required documents. Then you have to pay registration fees. Then I will take 30-45 days period to confirm your admission. After confirmation, you have to select your subjects and Regional Centre and Study Centre. Then You get you I'd Card and after some day you will get your course books.

Faculty

3

In my course, there are various faculties, each with a wealth of experience in their respective fields. The faculty-to-student ratio is quite decent, for example, 1 professor for every 50 students in a batch. I don't have enough information about faculties outside my program, but I can confidently say that the history and political science faculties stand out to me. They are not only highly experienced but also provide detailed and comprehensive explanations on every topic they teach. Moreover, their support and encouragement greatly contribute to a positive learning environment. There are annual exams that only cover 8 subjects, Before the exams, you have to submit assignments for each subject. I f you do not submit your assignment, you are not allowed to take the exam.

As a future law student philosophy was one of the options which was good to opt. Secondly, comparatively less people opt it and it can be one of the better choices if you are preparing for upsc and taking it as an optional. Teaching can be made more interactive as the topics are really interesting

Remarks:

Positive : the faculties are good and I could say our college is the meeting place of various cultures ranging from Kerala to jammukashmir Negative: the infrastructure is poor. Labs and libraries are not so good. And there are stray dogs who often steps into classes and make us afraid. College is not fully air conditioned but is on processing.
