Course Curriculum Overview

4

This university is best for those who are preparing for some different course or examination. My decision also to choose the course is to prepare for the government competitive exams, i get enough time for my preperation.

Fees and Financial Aid

When i took admission in 1st year the fees was 4800, every year this is same because every year re-admission takes place. the additional exam fees is 300 per subject, 500 for practical based subject and we can get 10% off in yearly fee if we dont apply for the physical study material. the fees of IGNOU is very affordable and anyone can do any course in this university.

Campus Life

2

This answer i also cant give properly because it is open university, so there is no physical clg. We only go our exam center clg just to give the examinaton and the submission of the assignment, we can ask about queries also if we have any doubt about the course.

Admission

Sam answer here also, if I had choose the other regular college than i would have not got the enough time to prepare for my other competitive examination, but here i get enough time for my preparation and for my other interests also.

Faculty

4

It is open so i cant give my views on the faculty. The exams are based on yearly basis, there is no semester system for examinations. To pass the exam you need to het 35 marks out of 100 and for assignments you need to submit them before the exam. the weightage of exams is 70% and assignment 30%.

Night Life

1

Same here there no clg life or something like night life while studying in an open university, i live at my house and i prepare for my examination. But we can visit the headquarter which is situated in Delhi.

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.
