Studies at IGNOU

Yes, you can take admission in IGNOU in August. There are two cycles of admission in IGNOU, that is, January and July. Your eligibility for admission to IGNOU will depend on the score you have secured in your last qualifying degree. 

But, if you are planning to pursue BEd then your admission is dependent on the IGNOU BEd Entrance Test score. The last date of application for admission in the July session is 30th June. 

I would recommend you to go through the IGNOU website to get a better idea and you can also contact their admission desk for any such queries.

What are the disadvantages of IGNOU?

SG
Srabani Guha Posted On : July 18th, 2023
studied at Indira Gandhi National Open University

There are many flaws in the Indira Gandhi National Open University or IGNOU with respect to the academics offered. Some of them have been listed below:

  • There is only one regional center that responds to the queries of a large number of students.
  • Some regional centers don’t even have a telephone line and sometimes students have no contact and their visit becomes useless.
  • The examiners have little or no interest in checking the copies of the exam. 
  • The course structure is obsolete and not at par with the current trends in the industry. 

However, if you look at the bright side then IGNOU is Asia's best distance-learning platform and is improving itself. Now, you can get your study material right at your doorstep at no additional cost which is very cost and time effective. So we can safely conclude that although IGNOU lacks in certain areas, its pros overshadow the cons to a large extent.
