Since it's an open university, we do assigned with a study centre (usually nearby colleges of other universities). I live in North East Delhi, so I had given Vivekanand Mahila College, University of Delhi as my study centre. We were allowed to use their libraries and classrooms. A separate IGNOU office was also their for our queries. And teachers were assigned by the same college. The classrooms were good and equipped with good desks and boards, canteen was also good and provide healthy eating options as well. All the college staff were very generous and kind to students and parents. Other than academics, there were no other opportunities provided by the university per say sports, extra curriculum activities and groups, etc.
