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.

Many companies come as ever since USME has been installed at the east campus the tie-ups with the brands happened before that. So we were etaught accordingly the war corporate wanted us and that is how this has been done with solid precision and thus our placements have never jolted.

Reviewed on Nov 29, 2025(Enrolled 2025)

Course Curriculum Overview:

Too vague to understand, feels extra burden of unnecessary irrelevant topics , extra papers like SEC/VAC simply add to the burden while barely providing with any skills and values as their name suggests . Studying them and preparing for exams add extra stress and unnecessary burden on them , diverting their focus from their core papers , which are already too huge and they study materials or readings simply fail to assist . Areas for improvement would be - proper structured study materials , also proper structured practical subjects / papers for students where they can actually learn or gain knowledge/skills which will be advantageous in their future .

Placement Experience:

I would say the placement opportunities are more available for science , commerce background students in the college there are rarely any placement opportunities for humanities background students . Mostly students starts engaging in placement in the fifth semester .severky companies visited campus every year including Deloitte , EY.TCS etc . Around 40 - 50 percent students from professional courses get the placement annually .even for the students not opting for placement the exposure n the strong alumni network of college help them secure good opportunities outside campus
