The pros and cons of IGNOU

The curriculum is very good as I have mentioned earlier that it is a government University so all the information which is in our courses are through by goverment servey and all. We had a gap of 6 months for our each semesters exams.

No company came to IGNOU. It actually depends on the course which we have taken and not on the university. For us there were no placement most probably it might be available for science students and commerce students but for art's I have seen none so far.a

In IGNOU the fees structure is very affordable admission fees was 1500 rupees and registration fees was 4500 per year. Exams fees are 200 per exams so that is total 2400 with 12 subjects. Per semester 3 exams.

There are many annual and technical festival yearly held in IGNOU not monthly. The library is vast and we can get a decent amount of books from there. The class rooms are not digitalized. We can represent our university IGNOU in all national sports if permitted by the university. I have not came across any students groups or clubs as for now.

I applied in St Anthony's college Shillong and I was studying there for about 1 year 6 months I had given 9 exams in total but due to COVID I had to dropout.So IGNOU was the best option for me as I can work and study at a comfortable time. No I didn't get rejected from any other college as I directly joined St Anthony's college Shillong. The addmission process of IGNOU is to go to a cyber open IGNOU website and apply by submitting all of your information and documents 10+12 marksheets. No age limit is there in IGNOU which is great. And no mark criteria. We just need to wait for the confirmation.

The student ratio was good and classes were available for everyone on the weekends. Sorry won't mention names. Not mentioning names. There are 24 exams in total 3 exams per semesters and the exams are easy if we study for a decent amount of time. The courses are very much relevant to the curriculum as it is very decorated source of information through government. Conducting survey and everything they came to a conclusion of many things in our book.

Most of the time after our classes we go to cafeteria and talk about our life over a cup of tea/coffee. IGNOU is mostly distant learning so we have to go to nearby study centre for classes and it depends on the study centre of what kind of environment they provide. In IGNOU you can roam within a certain area and it is completely safe because it is protected by the government so police and security is always there and you just need to carry your ID.
